Citation

[2015] NZHC 1215
Court

High Court

The Court held there was a good arguable case that the contracts were at least partly performed in New Zealand within r 6.27(2)(b)(iii), there is a serious issue to be tried and New Zealand is the appropriate forum under r 6.28(5); no exclusive distribution agreement with Singapore jurisdiction was proved; accordingly the Court should assume jurisdiction and the defendant's application to dismiss or stay was dismissed.

Court

High Court

Because the District Court judge correctly confined his review to the limited unfairness test under s50, found no procedural unfairness or jurisdictional error in the Tribunal or his own decision, and did not misapply the law, the appeal and subsequent application for review must be dismissed and the Tribunal/District Court factual findings are not re‑opened on merits grounds.
