High Court, in proceedings with a long and complex history, including appeals, concerning the regulation of an inland fishery grants, inter alia, orders: (a) determining that the hearing of an application on affidavit be treated as the trial of the action; (b) dismissing a counterclaim in circumstances where the defendants could adduce no new substantive evidence concerning the title to the fishery in question; and (c) grants the substantive orders sought in the general endorsement of claim, to include orders restraining the defendants and other parties from fishing in the relevant fishery without a permit.
Application for directions as to mode of trial - claim to restrict persons from fishing in identified fishery without a permit - injunctive relief - grant of interlocutory order - modular trial ordered in 2011 - application to admit new evidence - chain of title of fishery - further evidence coming to light - whether plaintiff had alleged rights over part of fishery claimed - complex history of action - application to dismiss counterclaim - application for oder treating the hearing of the application as the trial of the action for the purpose of determining entitlements.
