Cubo Projects Ltd v S&S Import Solutions Ltd [2020] NZHC 3234
I roto i te keehi Cubo Projects Ltd v S&S Import Solutions Ltd , [1] kāore a S&S Import Solutions Ltd i utu i a Cubo Projects Ltd, ā, kāore hoki i whakarato i ngā wātaka utu hei whakamārama i ngā take mō te kore utu. Whai muri i te whiwhinga i tētahi whakataunga whakarāpopototanga me te whakakorenga o S&S Import Solutions Ltd, i tono a Cubo Projects Ltd mō ngā utu tiaki. I whakaaro te kooti, i roto i te kereme utu, ko te Ture anake e whakarato ana i ngā mea "tūturu me te whaitake". Ahakoa i whai a S&S Import Solutions i tētahi "huarahi mangere" ki ngā kereme utu me te tono ture, i tupato te kooti kia kaua e whakawhiwhia he utu nui rawa.
Ngā meka
I te tau 2018, i tukuna e Cubo Projects Ltd he tono ture ki a S&S Import Solutions Ltd mō tētahi toenga kāore anō kia utua, i ahu mai i te utu tuatahi, me te utu anō hoki i muri mai i raro i te Ture Kirimana Hanga 2002 ( Ture ). Kāore a S&S Import Solutions Ltd i aro mai ki te tono, ā, i tukuna e Cubo Projects Ltd a S&S Import Solutions Ltd ki te whakakorenga. Ahakoa i whakaae ngā rōpū mō ngā toenga kāore anō kia utua, i noho te take o ngā utu whakamana hei wāhanga tautohetohe mā rātou.
I tono a Cubo Projects Ltd mō ngā utu tuturu i runga i te kaupapa utu ā-nama tae atu ki te $19,927.00. I raro i te Ture, i tautohe a Cubo Projects Ltd he tika tonu tā rātou ki te utu i raro i te kaupapa utu ināianei, ā-nama anō hoki, i whakaaetia e S&S Import Solutions Ltd i muri i te whakatūpato a Cubo Projects Ltd ka tono rātou mō ngā utu ā-nama.
I kī a S&S Import Solutions Ltd, nā te mea i tere te whakatau i te take, ā, he iti te toenga kāore anō kia utua, me iti noa ngā utu i whakawhiwhia. I whakaae te kooti ki a S&S Import Solutions Ltd, kāore i tino uaua ngā whakahaerenga, ā, i whakanuia te kupu "whaitake" i roto i ngā utu tūturu me ngā utu whaitake i raro i te Ture. I whakawhiwhia a Cubo Projects Ltd ki te $11,830.50 hei utu.
I whakaū tēnei kēhi ahakoa e āhei ana ngā rōpū ki te whakahoki mai i ngā utu whakamana tika e te Ture Kirimana Hanga 2002, ehara ngā utu tiaki i te tika aunoa, ā, ka angitu noa iho i ngā wā onge. I whakaaturia anō hoki tēnei i roto i tētahi kēhi o mua , Redican Allwood Limited v RAB Contracting Limited [2010] NZHC 2355 , i reira i kī ai te Kaiwhakawā ko ngā kereme mō ngā utu tiaki ka angitu noa iho ina he takahi i te whakawhirinakitanga, he mahi hē rānei .
Te Tono ā-Ture me te Whakatau a te Kaiwhakawā
Kia whakatauhia e te kaiwhakawā he moni e tika ana kia utua, ā, kāore anō kia utua katoatia e te rōpū i mua i te katinga o te rā e tika ana, i raro i te Construction Contracts Act 2002 ka noho te moni hei nama e tika ana kia utua . He maha ngā kōwhiringa whakamana e wātea ana pēnei i te whakamutu i te mahi hanga, te tono ki te kooti mō tētahi ota utu mō te papa whenua hanga, te whakauru rānei i te whakataunga hei whakataunga ki te kooti.
He tino uaua te ātete i te whakatinanatanga o ngā ture i raro i te Ture, heoi, kei reira ētahi kōwhiringa i runga i te tikanga whakatinanatanga.
Kei konei ētahi atu kōrero e pā ana ki te ātete ki te whakatinanatanga o ngā ture i raro i te Ture.
