[2022] NZSC 110
Court

Supreme Court

Leave to appeal was dismissed because the challenged matters were concurrent factual findings supported by evidence, raised no question of public importance and disclosed no appearance of miscarriage of justice; therefore leave to appeal to the Supreme Court was not justified.

Court

Court of Appeal

The Court of Appeal granted leave to appeal on the discrete question whether the law recognises a presumption that employee ignorance of an employer's code of conduct ordinarily prevents a finding of serious misconduct, and adjourned the disparity ground to the substantive hearing; leave was granted because the question is of general and public importance.
