BANNING v NZ POLICE [2022] NZHC 2523

- High Court
The reparation orders were quashed because both victims had already been paid by insurers and there was no evidence of the victims' consent required by s 38 to direct payment to insurers; insurers had exercised their rights (including subrogation) and entered into private settlements with the appellant, making overlaying court reparation orders unnecessary and risking double recovery.
