RAFIQ v PRIVACY COMMISSIONER [2014] NZHC 325
- Citation
- [2014] NZHC 325
- Court
- High Court
Leave was refused because the impugned 7 April 2010 letter was privileged under Privacy Act 1993 s 96(4) and thereby afforded the same absolute privilege as court proceedings (Defamation Act 1992 s 14(1)), so the proposed defamation claim had no prospect of success and it would not be just to grant leave.
