Family relationships

In 2014 it was reported that Elizabeth Huljich, the 84-year-old mother of the Huljich brothers, had filed an application in the High Court at Auckland for a summary judgment to force her eldest son Christopher Huljich to repay a $264,000 mortgage registered over her St Heliers home. The mortgage dispute is the latest chapter of the long-running family dispute to hit the courts. The wrangle has seen the family split, with Mrs Huljich and Paul lined up against Michael, Christopher and Peter in a tussle for control of finances. Mrs Huljich said she felt Paul had been sidelined from the family business. The internal struggle resulted in Christopher being granted a High Court gagging order in 2012 preventing Paul from circulating a 50-page document outlining his grievances.
