CAMERON v EVEREST CENTRAL INVESTMENTS LIMITED [2019] NZHC 2750

Citation

[2019] NZHC 2750
Court

High Court

The Court awarded costs to Everest on a 2B scale rather than 2C because the proceeding, while not simple, was not so complex or time-consuming as to justify Band C; the planner's evidence was reasonably necessary and substantially helpful so his invoice was recoverable as a disbursement.
