KHAN v ACCIDENT COMPENSATION CORPORATION [2016] NZHC 1756

[2016] NZHC 1756
Court

High Court

Special leave to appeal was declined because the applicant failed to identify a question of law or show a reasonable prospect of success; the District Court judges acted within jurisdiction and with independence; prior judgments were final and repeated challenges constituted abuse of process; additional material did not demonstrate that Judge Ongley's decision was contradicted by the only true and reasonable view of the evidence.
