Justice Christine Grice has been hearing the proceedings in Wellington. (File photo) Chan was claimed to have told DANZ that it played a “unique, umbrella role” for the sector. However, that was before the funding criteria had been set, Watt said. Chan could not predict what DANZ would put in its funding proposal, nor could Chan make a promise about any decision the Arts Council, which governs Creative NZ and signs off on all funding, had to lawfully make. A later meeting between DANZ and Creative NZ senior manager Cath Cardiff, in March 2019, also could not be seen as giving rise to any legitimate expectation the company would be successful in receiving funding, Watt said.

Warning: the following article contains distressing content.
OPINION: A few years back, when the talk between my daughter and her friends was all about leaving school and “
what next?” one of her besties told us, over dinner, she had been planning to join the forces. We could immediately see how suited she was; intelligent, capable and strong both in body and in mind, she would have been an asset to the New Zealand Defence Force. Unfortunately a childhood medical condition ruled her out, and she was devastated. But that was years ago, she s moved on and is in a happy place, and I, as a fond onlooker, am a little bit relieved that things worked out as they did.

Frucor, the makers of V have successfully defended their trademark of their colour green. V launched in 1997 and Frucor has held the trademark for the distinctive shade of green since 2008. Energy Beverages sells Mother Kicked Apple in a similar-coloured can. The Australian-based Energy Beverages filed two applications to the Intellectual Property Office to invalidate Frucor’s trademark of the colour. Energy Beverages’ first application argued that trademarking the colour was contrary to New Zealand law because when printed on different surfaces the shade of green changed, therefore the trademark covered multiple versions and wasn’t precise. Energy Beverages’ lawyers also argued that the wording of the trademark application was vague.
