The Court of Appeal dismissed [name withheld]'s further notice of motion seeking to reopen previously determined applications and set aside the underlying Land and Environment Court judgment, holding that the Court was functus officio and the litigation had been finalised. The Court imposed a requirement that any further application by the applicant against Hunters Hill Council in respect of the same matters must be accompanied by a document of no more than five pages showing cause why the application should not be summarily dismissed as vexatious and an abuse of process, and flagged that any further application may prompt the Court to consider of its own motion an order under the Vexatious Proceedings Act 2008 (NSW), s 8.
