- Court of Appeal
Leave to bring a second appeal was refused because two judges independently found no question of law or fact capable of serious argument that would justify further appeal: the applicant was unsuitable as litigation guardian due to a long history of acrimonious litigation with the respondent, lack of independence and objectivity, uncertainty as to the nature of the proposed claim and New Zealand jurisdiction given reliance on German law, and appointment would not be in the child's best interests.
