   ...the GQ’ lawyer before the ADs had signed the Deed. His acknowledgement was prompt and appropriate. He also confirmed he would not do anything like that again. As set out above, no penalty has been imposed in respect of that allegation. [101] It was apparent at the review hearing that the ADs were so aggrieved, they would probably have laid a complaint against Mr ZU even if he had not taken a beer with the GQ and their lawyer after the negotiations were concluded. The drinking...

   ...It would be problematic if parents had unfettered opportunity to restrict the other parent’s ability to travel with children, through the process of filing, without notice to the other party, a brief document, unsupported by other evidence. [101] It is clearly anticipated that the majority of applications for border alerts be accompanied by court order, this to provide comfort for the authorities that a court has determined that there are reasonable grounds to curtail potential trav...

   ...unusual cases that do not resolve in the expected way, or cases where the mechanism of injury would ordinarily be insufficient to cause the injury in question but nevertheless cause or contribute to it. I find that this is one of those cases. [101] I conclude therefore that the appellant’s left shoulder acromioclavicular joint arthropathy and instability was wholly or substantially caused by her accidents in 2016 and 2018 and that therefore ACC’s decisions of 5 March 2021 and...

   ...to the Butts. 33 At [42]–[43]. [100] There is no evidence to indicate that Ms McKechnie intentionally misled the Butts. She says she was unaware of Ms Wilson’s understanding until the email from the Butts of 4 September 2020. [101] If Ms McKechnie did not intentionally make the representation, she cannot have agreed that the truth of that representation was essential. [102] Likewise, while there is no doubt that it was essential to the Butts, there is no evidenc...

Mr RT’s apparent belief that the ACs were contracted to him and unable to change lawyers was misguided. [101] Mr RT was not misguided and nor was his belief that the applicant could not change lawyers “apparent”. His views were founded on the fact that he had been irrevocably and unconditionally instructed to complete the sale. [102] The...
