TAYLOR v KEY, ELECTORAL COMMISSION & ORS [2014] NZHC 3306
- Citation
- [2014] NZHC 3306
- Court
- High Court
Leave to intervene was declined because none of the applicants fall within the statutory categories in s230(1) of the Electoral Act 1993, intervention would subvert the clear statutory intent limiting who may challenge an election, the appointed amicus is adequate to ensure relevant arguments and evidence are before the Court, and intervention would likely increase cost and hearing duration without assisting the Court.
