    An elderly Christchurch couple is upset - insurer IAG plans to appeal a court judgement - awarding them nearly 400-thousand dollars

    An elderly Christchurch couple is upset - insurer IAG plans to appeal a court judgement - awarding them nearly 400-thousand dollars


    Alan and Joan Sleight won a landmark High Court case in October, after years of battling faulty home repairs made after the Christchurch quakes.

    The couple's son-in-law, Nigel Maxey - says IAG's dragging out the process by appealing the judgement - it must pay INTEREST on the costs

    He says it's taking its toll on the couple who are in their eighties.

    The other insurer QBE - has settled its portion of costs.

    The two insurers have spent 2.5 million dollars on defending their case against the Sleights .
