GOODWIN v ROCKET SURGERY LIMITED [2015] NZHC 749

- Court
- High Court
Court found exceptional circumstances existed because the Goodwins pursued weak litigation and caused unnecessary expense, but declined to order personal costs against them because their means (bankruptcy, low income, substantial debts and minimal assets) made a personal order unreasonable; instead the court specified under s45(5) that a 2B costs award with disbursements of $11,362.26 would have been made.
