Summary judgment was refused because there are genuine factual disputes and tenable defences (immunity, truth, honest opinion) to several alleged defamatory statements; paragraphs 2 and 4 of the third amended statement of claim were struck out as an abuse of process; security for costs of NZD 10,000 was ordered; related proceedings were consolidated and leave in the out‑of‑time proceeding was declined to the extent noted.
