   ...in MU’s submissions, serves as a warning that any vehicles parked on the premises without authority will be issued a breach notice and will be liable to pay an infringement fee. There is no offer of parking services, and the elements required to form a contract are not met. 8. I note that MU’s submissions reference the Disputes Tribunal decision of OX v QT2 which is published on the Ministry of Justice website as a ‘Decision of Interest’. This decision is one of my decisions....

   ...co-workers or even friends. It is also necessary to determine whether or not there was any intention on the part of the parties at the time to enter into a legal relationship (for example, by drawing up a clear and specific loan agreement, however informal, and signing it). 9.

Not only is any agreement unenforceable, but I find t...

While this may have been the case, this did not negate the respondent’s right to tow the applicants’ car from private land. 9. The applicants also told the Tribunal that the respondent had a g...

If neither party breached the terms of the ASP so as to give rise to a right to cancel the contract, then did they enter into an Agreement on or about 31 August 2023 to cancel the contract? 4.

However, this does not exonerate TN. His mistake was that he had different platforms and didn’t realise he accepted the booking until 30 November. I note moneys are held with C Ltd not the host until moneys are released by C Ltd to the host around the time of the client’s stay. 13. Accordingly, TN breached s28 o...
