Re Chase Court Court of Appeal of New Zealand Full case name Public Trustee as administrator of the estate of Paul Chase, deceased v The Attorney-General sued on behalf of the Police Decided 22 September 1988 Citation [1989] 1 NZLR 325 Judges sitting Cooke P , Somers J , Henry J
Re Chase [1989] 1 NZLR 325 is a cited case regarding civil claims being barred by ACC .[1]
Background
[ edit ]
Paul Chase was a patched member of the Petone Mongrel Mob, and he was with a fellow gang member who were accused of discharging a firearm inside a Lower Hutt tavern frequented by a rival gang.
As the result of Chase being implicated in a gang related shooting, the police arranged a dawn entry into his apartment by armed police on 18 April 1983.
Being startled, Chase thought a rival gang was trying to break into his house, and to defend himself, he approached the police with a weight bar, which the armed officers mistook for a gun barrel and shot him dead.[2] [3]
Barred by ACC law in suing for damages, his estate sued for exemplary damages.
Held
[ edit ]
The court refused to award damages
