O’NEILL v LEAUPEPE [2023] NZHC 2574
- Citation
- [2023] NZHC 2574
- Court
- High Court
The proceeding was a plainly abusive use of court process and met the clearness threshold under r 5.35B: the Registrar's response was managerial and not a reviewable usurpation, the original procedural rejection was cured when compliant documents were filed making the complaint moot, and the applicant's extravagant, unsupported allegations and misdirected claims justified striking the proceeding out pre-service.
