MANGALASSERY v SOCIAL WORKERS REGISTRATION BOARD [2021] NZCA 509

- Court of Appeal
Leave to appeal to the Court of Appeal was declined because even if the Court had jurisdiction to hear the application it would not be granted leave: the High Court question as formulated rested on an incorrect factual premise, the correct question is case-specific and not of general or public importance, there is no risk of miscarriage of justice given the breadth of the Committee's statutory powers and the District Court order quashing and remitting the Board's decision remains operative, therefore the leave threshold is not met.
