KIDD v VAN HEEREN [2016] NZHC 568
- Citation
- [2016] NZHC 568
- Court
- High Court
The application for a stay was refused because the defendant failed to show a meritorious case for a stay: the Court was satisfied there will be a South African costs award of at least c.8 million rand comparable to the NZ$552,122 costs order, the plaintiff's undertaking to set-off is effective, and the defendant's conduct is delaying South African taxation; accordingly costs are payable on filing and service of the plaintiff's undertaking.
