McGUIRE v NEW ZEALAND LAW SOCIETY [2020] NZHC 3053

- High Court
Recall was refused because the District Court judge addressed and rejected the applicant's arguments on the relationship between the Law Society and Standards Committees, the circumstances did not amount to the narrow 'very special reason' required to recall a judgment, and even if the relationship point were wrong the claim would still fail on other strike-out grounds; appeal, not recall, is the proper remedy.
