Lee v Torrey [2015] NZHC 3261 [16 December 2015]

[1]      In  my  judgment  of  13  November  2015  I  reserved  quantification  of  the amount of interest to be incorporated in the judgment.  I set a time for submissions on same.  That time has now passed.  No opposition to the plaintiff ’s calculation has been lodged.  I am satisfied that the plaintiff’s calculation is correct.

[2]      Quantification of interest due to 18 November 2015 has been calculated at

$28,303.01.  That figure increases at the rate of $8.20 per day until the day of entry of judgment.  I am therefore satisfied that it is appropriate that judgment for interest to today’s date should now be entered. That is calculated as follows:

Amount to 18 November 2015  $28,303.01

Plus 28 days at $8.20 per day  229.60

Total interest  $28,532.61

[3]      Accordingly, I enter judgment for interest in the sum of $28,532.61.

[4]      Mr Locke has produced an amended schedule showing costs calculated on a

2B basis, plus disbursements.  I adopt that calculation.  Accordingly, judgment for costs in the sum of $49,506, plus disbursements of $5,249.53 is entered against the

defendants.
