- High Court
The Court refused to delay the scheduled enforcement hearing but allowed a limited two‑stage process: the hearing would proceed on 14 November for submissions and be adjourned to 25 November to allow the defendant to consult a tikanga expert and file further submissions; the defendant's personal attendance was not essential and tikanga arguments were ordinarily required to have been raised earlier; leave to adduce further evidence was granted and strict filing deadlines were imposed.
