FOSTER v WILSON [2022] NZHC 1955
- Citation
- [2022] NZHC 1955
- Court
- High Court
The High Court lacks jurisdiction under s161(3) ERA 2000 because the plaintiff's claims arise in the course of the employment relationship and constitute an employment relationship problem (primarily a personal grievance/unjustified dismissal or otherwise falling within s161(1)(r)); reliance on the Bill of Rights Act does not remove the matter from the Authority's exclusive jurisdiction.
