1. [2014] NZEmpC 117 Hutchison v Nelson City Council re-issued [pdf, 222 KB]

   ...part of a team, and a lack of insight as to the effect she was having on others. [15] On 23 August 2011, Ms Hutchison and Mr Louverdis discussed the difficulties which had arisen. Amongst other things, Mr Louverdis raised the possibility of Human Resources (HR) staff becoming involved. Ms Hutchison sent an email to an HR Administrator with whom she had been sharing her concerns as to this possibility. Her colleague said she would raise the issue with Mr Stephen Gully, a long-s...

2. Cole v Realty Insight Limited [2012] NZWHT Auckland 25 [pdf, 259 KB]

   ...relationship with Mr Lee and was best placed to give advice about such issues. [50] The recollection of the claimants’ witnesses about details of the meeting may not be 100% accurate but that is hardly surprising giving the frailty of human recollection. I also reject the submission made by Mr Xiang that it was implausible that Ms Geraldine Cole went to Albany on 23 August 2006 and it is far more likely that she would have been at school. Likewise the contention that Ms A...

   ...Interpretation In this Act, unless the context otherwise requires,­ archaeological site means, subject to section 42(3),- (a) any place in New Zealand, including any building or structure (or part of a building or structure), that- (i) was associated with human activity that occurred before 1900 or is the site of the wreck of any vessel where the wreck occurred before 1900; and (ii) provides or may provide, through investigation by archaeological methods, evidence relating to the...

4. [2017] NZEmpC 70 Edminstin v Sanford Limited [pdf, 515 KB]

   ...Sanford. That is, if nothing else, antithetical to the significant energy and financial resources committed to the case by both parties and the potentially broader implications of the judgment I inferred from the evidence of Sanford’s (former) human resources manager. [6] Because what constitutes “marks” is in part at least in issue in this case, I will describe them for the purposes of this introduction generally and uncontroversially as follows. Marks are a navigat...

   ...of loss of self-worth; it has caused stress to the community due to him acting out to the extent he has been imprisoned as a result. It has been extremely costly to the community as XXXX is a highly skilled man who cannot work. The cause of this human and economic cost is a physical illness, which is potentially able to be well managed. However, given 20 years of poor management, XXXX now needs a great deal of support. We are not able to say to what extent the predicament is the r...

6. Canterbury / Westland Standards Committee 3 v Johnson [2018] NZLCDT 5 [pdf, 464 KB]

   ...seriously. Initially, Mr Johnson denied that he had updated so infrequently, or had admitted so to the inspector, but he also conceded on this matter. [125] Mr Johnson accepted the errors, but minimised their seriousness, using terms such as “human error”, “honest mistake”, “not a widespread failure”, “accident” and “oversight”. We disagree. When we stand back and assess the overall picture, it falls far short of the standard required of a trust account partner,...

   ...possible to build the house adequately if the building process had been supervised in the way that Landmark claimed it would be. [20] Mr Clarke gave evidence as to how he managed Landmark, which included looking after the company’s finances, human resource issues, signing contracts, liaising with contractors, solicitors, accountants and oversaw credit issues. Mr Clarke was in day-to-day control of all the company’s activities. The evidence was that he kept a tight control...

    ...follow that all adverse effects ought to be avoided in outstanding coastal landscapes and consequently no activities could be provided for: not even navigation aids otherwise consistent with Policy 9(b) NZCPS. Effectively, on that approach, any human activity might be regarded as necessarily causing adverse effects on the environment.39 43. The Court also emphasised (citing the Court of Appeal in Man of War Station) that much turns on what is sought to be protected.40 44. It is su...
