- Court of Appeal
The Court held that New Zealand does not recognise a broad 'putting in issue' exception to legal professional privilege; s146 of the Land Transfer Act 1952 does not require waiver of privilege; in the circumstances no actual or implied waiver by Mrs Shannon occurred and privileged communications need not be disclosed; appeal dismissed.
