新西兰的一个社区花园以违反2018年保护协议为由,寻求最高法院审查阻碍发展。
A New Zealand community garden seeks Supreme Court review to block development, citing a breached 2018 preservation agreement.
奥克兰的一个社区花园(Sanctuary Mahi Hutua)呼吁新西兰最高法院保护其0.7公顷的土地不受开发影响,
Sanctuary Mahi Whenua, a community garden in Auckland, has appealed to New Zealand’s Supreme Court to protect its 0.7-hectare site from development, arguing the Crown is violating a 2018 agreement requiring its preservation.
上诉是在上诉法院于2025年12月作出一项决定之后提出的,该决定通过驳回该集团的法律要求和拒绝获取解释协议所需的关键文件,从而允许发展。
The appeal follows a December 2025 Court of Appeal decision that allowed development by dismissing the group’s legal claim and denying access to key documents needed to interpret the agreement.
该团体表示,这种拒绝可能会造成司法不公,并正在寻求最高法院审查,预计将在两至四个月内作出决定。
The group says this denial risks a miscarriage of justice and is seeking Supreme Court review, with a decision expected in two to four months.
但前提是,该团体正在筹集法律费用,已筹集约4000美元,其中2000美元为固定费用,捐款超过5美元者可获得税收抵免。
A caveat remains in place, and the group is raising funds for legal costs, having collected about $4,000, including $2,000 in fixed fees, with donations over $5 eligible for a tax credit.
