2. [2021] NZEmpC 93 Gestro v Relph [pdf, 287 KB]

   ...the sole trustee. [100] That LITC Ltd may have paid Ms Gestro wages is not, when compared with the range of other factors I have reviewed, sufficient to establish that this particular entity was in reality Ms Gestro’s employer. Result [101] A declaration is sought against Mr Relph personally. He says he acted as trustee of the Trust. That may be so, but that could not be an impediment to the grant of a declaration against Mr Relph personally. [102] It is well es...

3. LCRO 107/2021 NG v WF and OE (29 September 2021) [pdf, 176 KB]

   ...settlement proposal has caused that to occur. 15 [100] Indeed, the nature of some of that correspondence would suggest a degree of tension between the NG siblings which, I perceive, has substantially delayed matters being resolved. Ms OE [101] Ms OE had no involvement in the estate administration file, and seems to have randomly been sent the 6 November 2020 email containing the settlement proposal. On receiving it Ms OE noted that the partner with responsibility for the m...

   ...its challenge. [100] Having regard to the effect of s 183 of the Act, the effect of which is that this decision replaces the Authority’s determination, I confirm the remedies that were awarded by the Authority, as set out at [23] above. [101] I reserve costs. Normally these follow the event. That would mean that any costs which the Court is able to recognise for the purposes of an application for costs under the Guideline Scale as to Costs could be sought by Ms Berea as the su...

   ...on the balance of probabilities. [100] Accordingly, the appeal is allowed and the decision of the Corporation of 9 February 2018 declining to help with the costs of treatment and other supports for cardiovascular conditions is reversed. [101] Should there be any issue as to costs, the parties may file memoranda in respect thereof within one month. Judge C J McGuire District Court Judge Solicitors: Medico Law Limited, Grey Lynn for the respondent....

6. [2021] NZEmpC 168 Juyi International Ltd v Pan [pdf, 283 KB]

   ...may have been filed. [99] Mr Pan’s challenge is also dismissed. [100] Pursuant to s 183(2) of the Act, the Authority’s determination on the issues I have reviewed is set aside and this judgment replaces it in those respects. [101] I reserve costs. Given the mixed outcome, it may be appropriate for costs to lie where they fall. However, if either party chooses to seek a contribution to costs incurred, they may do so within 28 days, with a response given 14 days ther...

7. Morgan v Public Service Commissioner [2022] NZHRRT 38 [pdf, 190 KB]

   ...Limited [2016] NZHRRT 38 (Singh) at [100]. Once a causal connection is established damages must be such as to adequately compensate the plaintiff for the behaviour to which he has been subjected rather than to punish the defendant; see Singh at [101]. Any award of damages imports a subjective element to its assessment. The circumstances of each aggrieved individual will be specific to them and unique: Hammond at [177.2]. [61] Ms Morgan said that she was distressed at the withdrawal of...

8. LCRO 75/2022 BG v HC (25 October 2022) [pdf, 212 KB]

   ...clarified in more detail the extent to which BG had addressed the cost/risk factors when first taking instructions from HC. [100] I am satisfied however that there is sufficient information available to adequately determine the fee issue. [101] I think it probable that HC was resolutely determined to proceed her employment claim. 15 [102] The fact that she had instructed BG after first taking advice from two employment advocates, gives indication that she was committed to ch...

   ...provide noise mitigation, but also a visual screen for stock and event attendees. The Court directed that the [S] [6] [7] 4 applicant give further consideration to this and provide an appropriate condition. It is clear from paragraph [101] that the Court did not: … find the evidence to demonstrate that the events centre poses unacceptable noise levels and risk of effects on stock or farming operations … At paragraph [133] the Court made a further direction to addre...

    ...issues, being his concern that Mr FB had accepted instructions in circumstances where Mr VG considered that Mr FB would have been aware that he would not be able to complete the retainer, and concern that Ms SS had failed to consider his complaints. [101] Mr VG did not seek to review the complaints he had raised regarding concerns that Mr FB had, when initially representing him on a number of matters, failed to adequately inform him about escalating fees and charged fees that were excess...
