MURREN & ANOR v SCHAEFFER [2018] NZHC 2320
- Citation
- [2018] NZHC 2320
- Court
- High Court
The threats alleged to have been made at mediation were not shown to be relevant to the real controversy in the substantive proceedings, did not justify the extreme remedies of striking-out or permanently staying the claims, and the Court will not admit or rely on an undisclosed confidential affidavit in civil proceedings; subpoenas against the plaintiffs' counsel are prohibited as unjustified and an abuse of process.
