JOHN MORGAN MACKENZIE v LEGAL SERVICES COMMISSIONER [2013] NZSC 140

Citation

[2013] NZSC 140
Court

Supreme Court

The Registrar's decision to refuse filing was correct because the Supreme Court lacks jurisdiction to consider an appeal from the Court of Appeal's refusal of leave under s7(b); however, the Court will, under s14, treat the application as if it sought leave to appeal from the High Court and allow limited further submissions.

Citation

Court

High Court

The Court refused to entertain the informal, eleventh‑hour stay application because the prejudice to the judgment creditor and the Court's need to manage its docket outweighed any limited prejudice to the judgment debtor, particularly where the applicant was present, had prepared for cross‑examination, and no formal application had been filed.
