ABDUR RAHIM MIAH v AMP LIFE LIMITED [2018] NZHC 1634

Citation

[2018] NZHC 1634
Court

High Court

The r 9.34 inspection order was refused because authenticity of the wills and probate resealing are matters to be determined in separate Administration Act proceedings which will decide standing; inspection under r 9.34 is not necessary for proper determination of issues in this proceeding and cannot be ordered merely to test credibility, coupled with practical obstacles to producing originals from Bangladesh.

High Court

The unsworn, late document examiner's report did not provide a reasonable ground to establish fraud or to raise a triable issue; contemporaneous witness evidence and documents supported that the auction occurred and key signatures were likely genuine; therefore the defendant's material was insufficient to justify adjourning or refusing the plaintiff's application for summary judgment.
