GOURDIE v DAVIES [2021] NZHC 1312

Citation

[2021] NZHC 1312
Court

High Court

The court granted leave under s146 to register a second caveat without notice because the applicants demonstrated a caveatable interest, the lapse occurred through no fault of theirs, and their undertaking to compensate mitigates prejudice to those relying on the register; urgency justified without-notice relief while preserving respondents' right to later challenge the caveat.
