[2020] NZHC 2215
Court

High Court

Second counsel was not justified because the appeal was not unusually complex; no reduction for partial success was warranted because the unsuccessful 'change in circumstances' ground was secondary; KPBL awarded 2B costs of $12,189 plus disbursements $110 (total $12,299); Auckland Council awarded 25% of 2B scale costs ($3,226.50); enforcement deferred pending final disposition of leave to appeal.
