Grounds of appeal

[14] The appellant contends that the primary judge erred in finding that the respondent had discharged the onus of establishing the matters required under the relevant provision.

[15] It was submitted that his Honour failed to give adequate weight to the evidence of the second witness, and that the findings of fact were not reasonably open on the material before the Court.

[16] The respondent, for its part, submits that no error is disclosed, and that the conclusions reached were well within the range of outcomes available to the primary judge.

Consideration

[17] It is convenient to deal first with the question of construction, as the resolution of that issue informs the remaining grounds advanced by the appellant.

[18] For the reasons that follow, we are of the view that the appeal should be allowed in part and the matter remitted for further determination.

AGLC: Harrison v Schipp [2002] NSWCA 78
Case: [2002] NSWCA 78
Decision Date: 21 June 2002

CaseChat Overview and Summary

The case of *Harrison v Schipp* concerned a dispute between a solicitor, Mr. Schipp, and his former client, Ms. Harrison. Ms. Harrison sought to reopen a judgment that had been entered against her in previous proceedings, alleging that she had discovered fresh evidence. The matter came before the Court of Appeal of New South Wales.

The primary legal issues before the Court of Appeal were whether a bill of review for fresh evidence was still available as a procedural mechanism in New South Wales, and if so, what the requirements were for admitting such evidence. The Court also considered the fundamental principle that a court generally has no power to reconsider a perfected judgment.

The Court of Appeal held that the equitable remedy of a bill of review was no longer available in New South Wales, having been superseded by statutory provisions. Furthermore, the Court affirmed that once a judgment is perfected, it cannot be reopened except in limited circumstances, such as where the judgment was obtained by fraud. The Court found that the evidence Ms. Harrison sought to introduce did not meet the stringent requirements for admitting fresh evidence to reopen a perfected judgment, nor did it demonstrate fraud.

Consequently, the Court of Appeal dismissed Ms. Harrison's application with costs.
