Subject: Official Information request - legal fees

 

Dear University of Auckland,

The judgment of Fitzgerald, J awarded the University $18,274 in schedule
costs and disbursements for Roe v University of Auckland.

I want to know how much the University is or was to pay in legal fees for
that proceeding as they chose to employ external counsel from Gilbert
Walker.

Yours faithfully,

K Roe
