DAVID SIMON BARTON v R [2020] NZSC 87

Citation

[2020] NZSC 87
Court

Supreme Court

The recall application was dismissed because the applicant failed to establish any of the limited grounds permitting recall: there was no legislative amendment or new controlling case law, no failure by counsel to draw attention to relevant law, and no other very special reason; many issues had been considered and could have been raised earlier.
