- Court
- High Court
The High Court granted leave to appeal because there is an arguable question of law whether absence of fault may be treated as part of 'exceptional circumstances of a humanitarian nature' under s207(1)(a); the Tribunal had treated absence of fault as a factor in the first limb, there is tension in authority (Guo v Tuitupou), and the issue is of general and public importance warranting determination by the High Court.
