Court

High Court

Leave to appeal was declined because the applicant did not identify any question of law of sufficient importance for the Court of Appeal, the proposed appeal was redundant given the High Court's finding that the Tribunal decisions were interlocutory and non-final, and the application was filed out of time with no extension granted.

OSBORNE AND OSBORNE v AUCKLAND CITY COUNCIL (NOW AUCKLAND COUNCIL) COA CA841/2011
Court

Court of Appeal

Section 95(2)(b) of the WHRS Act, read in its text and statutory purpose, makes a High Court determination on appeal from the Weathertight Homes Tribunal a final determination of the claim, and that specific statutory finality displaces the general appeal rights in ss66 and 67 of the Judicature Act so there is no second appeal to the Court of Appeal.
