SMITH v SMITH [2022] NZHC 272
- Citation
- [2022] NZHC 272
- Court
- High Court
The proceedings were dismissed because service had not been properly effected in accordance with the High Court Rules and the claim amounted to an abuse of process by seeking to relitigate matters already finally determined; given the procedural deficiencies, lack of proper affidavit evidence and no prospect of formal proof success, an adjournment was refused and dismissal ordered.
