REASONS

  1. SKP Inc has filed a second application for the recall of this Court’s judgment in SKP Inc v Auckland Council.[1]  In that judgment, the Court granted SKP’s application for an extension of time to apply for leave to appeal, but dismissed the application for leave.[2]

    [1]SKP Inc v Auckland Council [2021] NZSC 35.

    [2]The judgment was recalled and reissued on 5 May 2021 with a correction: SKP Inc v Auckland Council [2021] NZSC 37.

  2. Nothing has been advanced by SKP which would warrant a recall of the leave judgment.  Rather, the application is in substance an attempt to debate the merits of the application for leave.

  3. The application for recall is accordingly dismissed.
