FOUNDATION VILLAGE LIMITED v GROWING SPACES LIMITED (Application for an interim injunction) [2023] NZHC 2638

- Court
- High Court
Schedule 1 of the Arbitration Act governs interim injunctions of the type sought; arts 9 and 17 limit court intervention to specified interim measures and exclude residual powers. The plaintiffs' application fell within the topic regulated by Schedule 1 and would undermine the arbitrator's jurisdiction; accordingly the High Court had no jurisdiction to grant the orders and the application was declined.
