AZ v ACCIDENT COMPENSATION CORPORATION [2021] NZHC 1787
- Citation
- [2021] NZHC 1787
- Court
- High Court
The application to intervene and to adduce evidence was dismissed because the MPS's proposed submissions and additional evidence were not relevant to the discrete, agreed legal question before the Court; allowing intervention or new evidence would risk expanding the narrow issue, lengthening the hearing and increasing costs; Rule 20.16(3) requires special reasons for fresh evidence which were not present.
