- High Court
The application for a separate question under r 10.15 was declined because the issues could not be cleanly demarcated from the substantive s 74 hearing, the asserted time and cost savings were overstated given overlapping evidence and participation rights, and the risks from appeals and potential relitigation outweighed any marginal procedural benefit of splitting the trial.
