JUDGMENT OF THE COURT

The orders made by William Young J in his judgment of 24 November 2014 ([2014] NZSC 170) are confirmed.

____________________________________________________________________

REASONS

  1. On 24 November 2014 William Young J delivered a judgment:[1]

    (a)extending the time by which the applicant, Dr Fiona Graham, must file her written submissions to 5 pm on 5 December 2014; and

    (b)dismissing a further application by Dr Graham for a stay in relation to certain fines. 

    [1]The Wanaka Gym Ltd v Queenstown Lakes District Council [2014] NZSC 170.

  2. Later that same day, the Registry received a lengthy email from Dr Graham commenting on individual paragraphs in the judgment and asking that the email be put before the Judge as soon as possible.  In the circumstances, we have treated this email as an application for a review of the judgment by three Judges of this Court.

  3. Having considered the matter, we see no basis on which we should reach conclusions in respect of Dr Graham’s applications that differ from those of William Young J.  Accordingly, the orders in William Young J’s judgment of 24 November 2014 are confirmed.
