- [2014] NZSC 87
- Court
- Supreme Court
Leave to appeal was dismissed because the Court of Appeal properly applied established sentencing principles and was entitled to substitute imprisonment for home detention given the seriousness of the assault on a police officer, and there was no matter of public importance or risk of miscarriage of justice warranting Supreme Court intervention.
