- CACC544/2003
The appeal was allowed and the conviction quashed because the trial judge may have applied the wrong standard of proof (referring to the balance of probabilities) and there was concern about use of co-defendant interview material; despite strong evidence against the applicant the court declined to apply the proviso and therefore quashed the conviction. Leave to appeal out of time was granted.
