1. N Ltd v ES [2024] NZDT 74 (17 January 2024) [pdf, 196 KB]

   ...photographs in support of this. CI0301_CIV_DCDT_Order Page 3 of 4 24. NB responded that the ‘re-grown’ poplars will not take the same shape as the original poplars. They will not have a strong main trunk, they will be more ‘bushy’ in form, they will not grow to the same height, and they will be more vulnerable to broken branches and wind damage. 25. I accept that argument. Simply allowing the poplars to grow back will not return NB to the position that he was in be...

He noted that the request was made for emails either to or from the three named individuals, not just emails between them. Further, he provided analysis of the disclosed emails that, he said, indicated the distribution of the disclosed emails, in relation t...

   ...December 2022 T Ltd issued Invoice 0217 for $19,875.67 but says H Ltd has not paid it for this work. 2. H Ltd denies liability saying it has been caught up in unusual circumstances. In February 2022, T Ltd identified and notified H Ltd that its former employee Mr U had apparently altered invoicing arrangements directly with H Ltd, directing H Ltd to pay another company and a different bank account. H Ltd says it complied with the request made by Mr U and paid Mr U’s business for t...

8. BC v ST Ltd [2024] NZDT 381 (2 May 2024) [pdf, 194 KB]

   ...refund of the money paid. 10. With respect to that, BC argued at the hearing that she had paid $3400 + $300 for materials plus an additional $1400 for waterproofing. However a payment of $1400 for waterproofing is not consistent with her own claim form or submissions and it is not what the handwritten receipts show. ST Ltd say they were paid $3400.00 in total and I agree that is what all the other evidence supports. They say that the $300 BC spent at [hardware store], while accompa...

   ...has agreed to do under the contract. 6. NI requested a quote from Q Ltd to move his belongings. Q Ltd indicated to NI that he should allow 5-6 hours depot to depot with three men. Given NI engaged Q Ltd after that estimate was given, I find that formed the basis of their agreement. 7. NI said he thought it would only take 3 to 3 and half hours as he had recently moved within town and that is how long it had taken on that occasion. However, NI did not indicate to Q Ltd that he thoug...
