It's a waiting game for Synlait Milk after a Court of Appeal ruling has thrown its plans for a factory into disarray

The company brought land in Pokeno, in February last year, on the condition covenants were removed that restricted its use to lifestyle farming or forestry.
It had been cleared through the High Court last year, but that was all reversed yesterday.
Chief executive Leon Clement says the company's evaluating its options.
He says it's important they continue working with all parties and he's hopeful a resolution can be found.
Clement says Synlait is very committed to a future in Pokeno.
Synlait had already started building the factory and signed up dairy farmers as suppliers.
