- High Court
The appeal was dismissed because the appellant failed to demonstrate the reparation order was manifestly excessive or wrong in principle: the award compensated for property loss and emotional harm not covered by ACC, the District Court's instalment intent was reflected by the $50 per week order and the Notice provided a contact to arrange payment, and the appellant provided no financial evidence to show $50 per week for about two and a half years was excessive given precedents.
