[2023] NZHC 2296
Court

High Court

The Court exercised its discretion to refuse the stay because the balance of convenience and interests of finality favoured enforcement; however it granted a limited extension for expert evidence on English law to 15 September 2023 while leaving all other timetabling directions intact.

ANDERSON v EUROPEAN PROFILE COMPANY LIMITED [2015] NZHC 3100

Citation

[2015] NZHC 3100
Court

High Court

The Court held the arbitrator's termination ruling was a jurisdictional ruling that ended the arbitrator's mandate and was not an 'award' for the purpose of Sch 2 cl 5; the correct challenge procedure was under Sch 1 cl 16(3) and the plaintiff failed to seek that review within the 30 day limit, so the application for leave to appeal under Sch 2 cl 5(1)(c) was unavailable and must be dismissed.
