    Court of Appeal

    The Court dismissed the recusal appeals as without substance and largely moot, refused further evidence as irrelevant, upheld the judicial review dismissal of the District Court's indemnity costs (except for a small GST adjustment), allowed in part the appeal on Andrews J's costs decision by disallowing recovery for second counsel, and ordered NR to pay respondent costs of 40% of a standard band A appeal plus disbursements; a permanent publication prohibition was made.
