Brodie v Turkmani [2017] NZHC 2945
- Citation
- [2017] NZHC 2945
- Court
- High Court
Appeal dismissed; District Court correctly found payment was required promptly (by 20/21 February or 22 February 2016 at the latest), appellant failed to pay, and vendor validly rescinded the contract; new statutory arguments based on MVSA/FTA could not be entertained on appeal because they were known before trial, would prejudice respondents and lacked clear merit, and MVSA non‑compliance does not automatically void contractual rights absent statutory provision or exercise of discretion under the FTA.
