SIEMER v JUDICIAL CONDUCT COMMISSIONER [2013] NZHC 1655
- Citation
- [2013] NZHC 1655
- Court
- High Court
The proceedings were struck out as an abuse of process because the issues advanced duplicated matters already decided by Toogood J (and related appellate rulings); the Commissioner's examination of the written complaint satisfied the s15 preliminary examination requirement, s8(2) correctly excludes challenges to judicial decisions and required dismissal, and indemnity costs were awarded because the plaintiff proceeded after a clear warning.
