- [2023] NZSC 18
- Court
- Supreme Court
Leave to appeal was refused because the applicant failed to demonstrate exceptional circumstances required for a direct appeal from the High Court and did not satisfy the leave criteria in the Senior Courts Act; the proposed appeal was case-specific, did not raise questions of general or public importance, did not show a risk of miscarriage of justice, and sought to relitigate matters already decided in lower courts.
