- Citation
- [2018] NZHC 2571
- Court
- High Court
The High Court lacked jurisdiction to entertain the applicant's judicial review because the Employment Relations Act 2000 gives the Employment Relations Authority exclusive jurisdiction over employment relationship problems (s161), s194A bars High Court review of decisions arising from exercise of statutory powers in employment matters, and JRPA s7 makes judicial review subject to the ERA; accordingly the proceeding was dismissed and the interim injunction declined.
