VINCENT ROSS SIEMER v DEPUTY REGISTRAR OF THE SUPREME COURT OF NEW ZEALAND [2020] NZSC 135
- Citation
- [2020] NZSC 135
- Court
- Supreme Court
The Supreme Court lacks originating jurisdiction to entertain an application for judicial review under the Judicial Review Procedure Act 2016; judicial review under that Act must be commenced in the High Court, and review of a Registrar's decision should be sought from a Judge of the supervising court rather than by an originating JR in the Supreme Court; accordingly the applications are dismissed.
