WAYNE GRAHAM REALTY LIMITED v BROOK [2016] NZHC 950

Citation

[2016] NZHC 950
Court

High Court

The court granted leave to adduce the supplementary affidavit and annexed correspondence because the material was not before the District Court, was central to the appellant's challenge that the costs order was made summarily without evidence, constituted a 'special reason' under r 20.16, admission would assist a holistic assessment and caused no unfair prejudice to the respondent; costs of the interlocutory application were reserved.
