[2020] NZHC 2628
Court

High Court

The evidence provided reasonable grounds to believe the respondents had benefited from significant criminal activity and that the identified property interests were tainted; there was a real risk of disposal if notice were given, thereby justifying a without‑notice interim restraining order under s22 CPRA 2009 for seven days.

Court

The court found, on the balance of probabilities, that the respondent had effective control over the cash and drugs, had unlawfully benefited to the value of NZD 111,615.20 within the relevant period, and therefore restraint, ancillary and civil forfeiture orders were justified.
