- High Court
The Tribunal has jurisdiction to determine whether multiple records of title constitute a single rating unit under the Rating Valuation Rules and, because the question involves mixed issues of law and fact intimately tied to valuation, the High Court should not exercise inherent jurisdiction to decide the substantive declarations; accordingly the High Court stayed the proceeding and referred the substantive determination to the Tribunal (allowing for appeal rights).
