I know, that's why I already posted it.

I think it's okay to have more than one article about a topic?

Tbf your post was an RNZ article by a different journalist. I read both of them in a spirit of "wtf there must be more to this" and this one has slightly different detail about their previous holiday and him being a no-show at the hearing.

It's quite funny he didn't even show up and still won.

Kind of a testament to how wrong she was.

Must have been a bit weird for the judge just sitting there with this woman and hearing all these grievances and then being the one to break it to her that this is not how life works!
