- Court
- High Court
The proceeding was transferred to the District Court at Auckland because the claims fall within District Court monetary jurisdiction, the amount claimed is modest, the primary facts are not in dispute, the legal issues (including defamation meaning and defences) are not of such complexity as to require High Court resources, and considerations of convenience, cost and access to justice favour transfer under s46(1).
