- Court
- High Court
The Court exercised its discretion under s8 ICBA to grant the assistance requested because the County Court had issued a letter of request, the relief sought was the kind of relief the High Court could grant if the matter had arisen in New Zealand, and the defendant failed to establish a compelling reason — including necessity or public policy conflict — to refuse assistance.
