MARTIN v WAIKATO-TAINUI TE KAUHANGANUI INC [2015] NZHC 2694

- High Court
The Court held the matter was justiciable because Te Kauhanganui Inc performs quasi-public functions and the complaint concerned disciplinary procedure and reputation; the strike-out application was dismissed because disputed but material questions remained about the adequacy of notice and opportunity to respond, and the applicant must be permitted to re-plead focused natural justice grounds; some remedies (reinstatement for the expired term) are now futile but a declaration of invalidity may remain useful.
