LESLIE NORMAN AUSTIN v ROCHE PRODUCTS (NEW ZEALAND) LIMITED [2021] NZSC 30

- Court
- Supreme Court
Section 133(5) bars the courts from considering or granting remedies in relation to matters governed by the Act once a claim with a right of review or appeal is made; the appellant's challenge could and should have been pursued under the Act's Part 5 review and appeal procedures (including applying for late review under s135), and being out of time does not evade the statutory bar; accordingly the Supreme Court lacked jurisdiction to determine the substantive civil claim.
