Amaca Pty Ltd v Mathwin

Amaca Pty Ltd sought leave to appeal from a decision of the District Court of New South Wales. The underlying dispute concerned a claim for damages.

The primary legal issue before the Court of Appeal was whether there was an arguable error of law in the District Court's decision that would warrant granting leave to appeal, and if so, whether a substantial injustice had occurred.

The Court of Appeal considered the grounds of appeal advanced by Amaca Pty Ltd. It concluded that no arguable error of law had been demonstrated and, consequently, that no substantial injustice had been occasioned by the District Court's decision. Therefore, leave to appeal was dismissed.
