Van Leeuwen Group Ltd v Attorney-General [2020] NZHC

GCA Lawyers successfully defended Van Leeuwen Group’s right to seek court clarification on biosecurity compensation under the Biosecurity Act 1993. The Attorney-General sought to strike out the case, arguing disputes must go to arbitration, but the High Court ruled that legal interpretation remained within the Court’s jurisdiction. This decision clarified key compensation rights under the Act, providing strategic clarity for our client.
