POUTAMA KAITIAKI CHARITABLE TRUST & ANOR v TARANAKI REGIONAL COUNCIL & ORS [2021] NZHC 326

- Court
- High Court
The recall application was dismissed because none of Poutama's grounds met the limited Nash criteria: the contested matters were either properly before the Environment Court or not raised on appeal, the post-judgment Waitangi Tribunal report did not constitute a relevant higher judicial authority or newly admissible evidence, and no 'special reason' existed to justify recall; therefore the High Court judgment must stand subject to appeal.
