    CACC228/2013

    Leave to appeal and the application to adduce fresh evidence were refused because the applicant failed to provide a reasonable explanation under s83V for not adducing the material at trial, defence counsel pursued the case diligently and gave tactical advice accepted by the applicant, and the alleged trial errors were either unfounded or non‑prejudicial in light of compelling forensic evidence.
