NEWSROOM NZ LTD v SOLICITOR-GENERAL [2022] NZCA 58

Citation

[2022] NZCA 58
Court

Court of Appeal

Leave to intervene was granted because the appeal involved issues of general importance and the Committee, notwithstanding some overlap with the appellant, could provide useful collective media expertise; intervention was confined (limited to focused written submissions on a strict timetable, with prohibition on seeking costs and potential restriction on oral argument) to avoid expansion of issues, duplication and undue cost or delay.

JOLLY v TELEVISION NEW ZEALAND LIMITED [2017] NZHC 290

Citation

[2017] NZHC 290
Court

High Court

The High Court dismissed the application because the challenge to Judge Roberts' decision permitting in-court video recording was not a sustainable appeal or, alternatively, did not disclose a viable basis for judicial review under s 27(2) of the Bill of Rights Act 1990; accordingly there was no proper ground to overturn the District Court judge's discretionary decision.
