COMMERCE COMMISSION v APPENTURE MARKETING LIMITED (IN LIQUIDATION) [2017] NZHC 1515
- Citation
- [2017] NZHC 1515
- Court
- High Court
Leave to continue the prosecution was granted because, applying s 248, the public interest in enforcement and protection of vulnerable consumers, the seriousness of the alleged offending, absence of unreasonable delay, lack of an adequate alternative remedy, and the liquidator's non‑opposition together justified a court order permitting the Commerce Commission to continue proceedings despite the company's liquidation.
