COMMISSIONER OF POLICE v ANDREWS [2015] NZHC 745
- Citation
- [2015] 3 NZLR 515
- Court
- High Court
The appeal is dismissed: the High Court held the Tribunal was entitled to revisit and depart from its prior costs approach given the Tribunal's broad statutory discretion, the human rights character of its jurisdiction, and relevant considerations including the claimant's vulnerability and means; the Tribunal did not commit an error of law or principle and its discretionary refusal to award costs was not plainly wrong.
