NCAT cases are usually internal to a scheme — by-laws, levies, repairs, access to records. Court cases usually involve builders or insurers over defects, because those claims exceed the tribunal's jurisdiction. These are published decisions only — most strata disputes settle or are resolved without a judgment, so this is a floor, not a count. See the Meadowbank suburb profile.

The Owners Strata Plan No 76502 v Waterpoint Shepherds Bay Pty Limited
OtherCONTRACT – offer to settle litigation – time – where defendant made a ‘walk away’ offer, open for 28 days – where that offer accepted on 28th day – whether relevant that time of acceptance was later than time of offer – common law position on taking fractions of days into account CONTRACT – offer to settle litigation – counter-offers – where, before acceptance, plaintiff inquired of the defendant whether it might be able to get a better offer – whether that inquiry amounted to a counter-offer such that the initial offer was rejected CONTRACT – offer to settle litigation – where offer stated to be ‘on terms requiring each party to pay its own costs of the proceedings’ – whether the phrase ‘on terms’ incorporated an expectation that further terms were to be negotiated – where, after acceptance, defendant sought to require execution of a deed of release – where no mention of such a requirement in initial offer – usual expectation that a competent solicitor will specify in detail the terms on which an offer is made – result that a deed of release was not required
