McCULLAGH and LAWRENCE v NORTHERN CREST INVESTMENTS LIMITED (IN LIQUIDATION) [2020] NZHC 2535

- Court
- High Court
Given the complexity of a long-running cross-border liquidation and contested voidable transactions, the approved charge-out rates and the recorded hours were reasonable; the legal fees and other expenses were properly incurred and did not require further inquiry; an assessor was unnecessary; liquidators' remuneration claim of $275,344.67 is upheld; records seized in Australia may be disposed of for New Zealand purposes but require clearance from the Australian court.
