With respect to contractual liability of the town, the Hamiltons relied on s. 16(a) of the Sale of Goods Act (i.e., the Hamiltons alleged that the town breached an implied term in its contract for the supply of water suitable for horticultural use).

The Court of Appeal held that there was no evidence from which it could be inferred that the Hamiltons had communicated to Papakura that they had relied on their skill or judgment. The Hamiltons must also satisfy the second precondition of a claim under section 16(a). The majority rejected the Hamiltons' claim under s. 16(a) of the Sale of Goods Act because the Hamiltons failed to show that the town knew that the Hamiltons were relying on the town's skill and judgment in ensuring that the bulk water supply would be reasonably fit for the particular purpose. 60.

Torts - Topic 2004 System caused flooding. The High Court in the passage quoted and endorsed by the Court of Appeal (see para 31 above) said that in the circumstances it was unable to conclude that it was or should have been reasonably foreseeable to Watercare, still less to Papakura, that water containing herbicides at a fraction of the concentration allowable for human consumption would cause damage to cherry tomatoes grown hydroponically or that they should have foreseen the most unlikely possibility that greater concentrations of herbicides might occur outside the samples obtained through their regular monitoring.

The claim was that the herbicide had contaminated the water in the lake and that that contamination in turn had damaged their tomatoes. Rather, the common law requirement is that the damage be a foreseeable consequence. Standard of care expected of children. There is no suggestion of any breach of those Standards or indeed of any statutory requirements. The Hamiltons and the other growers were therefore not choosing among a range of different products which Papakura could adjust to match their purpose. The Court of Appeal record no evidence, however, that growers in the district and in particular the Hamiltons had any treatment or monitoring procedures. 3. A lawyer may be liable for breach of duty if you can prove that they did not act as a reasonable barrister would have (concerned the acceptance of a settlement). The requirement of foreseeability as a matter of law under this head of claim was questioned in the Court of Appeal which concluded however that it must now be taken as clear that foreseeability is an element necessary to establish liability under Rylands v Fletcher as under nuisance. Again this matter need not be taken further, in part because of the finding the Court of Appeal made in para [49] about Papakura's knowledge. The mere happening of the event is proof of negligence. Rylands v. Fletcher (1868), L.R. 330, refd to. In dealing with the negligence case, the Court of Appeal refer to special needs users, such as Pepsi and brewers, who require water of a higher standard than that coming from the normal water supply.

An error of judgment is not necessarily negligent. Why is this claim significant? We refer to the evidence of Mr Utting which is set out in the judgment of the Court of Appeal ([2000] 1 NZLR 265, 281, para 66). 0 Reviews. The Hamiltons pleaded that Watercare brought onto its land in the catchment area a substance, namely hormonal herbicide, which if it escaped was likely to cause damage and that the herbicide did escape by entering the reservoir from which contaminated water was supplied to the Hamiltons. Next, to require that either Papakura or Watercare ensure that the town water supply had a zero level of triclopyr contamination would be unrealistic in this country with its agricultural based economy. Hamilton v Papakura District Council and Watercare Services Ltd: PC 28 Feb 2002 (New Zealand) The claimants sought damages. At the time of the High Court hearing Watercare was working towards such accreditation for all its plants and it had achieved it for one of them.

The Court of Appeal, citing Ashington Piggeries Ltd v Christopher Hill Ltd [1972] AC 441, stated that [it] is, of course, clear that if the reliance of the Hamiltons was communicated to [Papakura] it would not be open to it to deny liability on the ground of ignorance of the precise level of contamination at which the damage would be caused . Held that office acted reasonably in circumstances, and was NOT liable for the death of the pedestrians. Over a period of more than four years, triclopyr residues were only very occasionally detected at the sampling sites in the lake, the highest concentration when detection did occur being 0.8ppb or some 125 times less than the 1995 Standard.

After hearing extensive evidence over more than three weeks, Williams J held that it had not been proved that the maximum concentration of any of the herbicides at the inlet tower in the lake or at the Papakura Filter Station or in the town supply ever came near the concentrations of herbicide shown by scientific results to be necessary to cause damage to cherry tomatoes grown hydroponically. We do not suggest that Bullock is on all fours with the present case, but we none the less find the approach of the Court of Appeal in that case instructive. Response to GLAA 1997 Questionnaire for Ward 6 DC Council Candidates. If a footnote is at the end of a sentence, the footnote number follows the full stop. 41. Escapes Because of their very different approach to the evidence we are unable to accept their conclusion that the Hamiltons would necessarily fail to establish the first precondition. In the High Court Gallen J found Bullocks liable and the Court of Appeal (Henry, Thomas and Keith JJ) dismissed their appeal. That makes no commercial sense. 45. . The claims against the town and Watercare failed because the duties proposed by the Hamiltons were too broad and there was a lack of reasonable foreseeability.
