- Court of Appeal
Extension of time to apply for leave was granted but leave to bring a second appeal was declined because there was no reasonably available argument that counsel's advice was so erroneous as to cause a miscarriage of justice; given COVID-19 uncertainty counsel's advice about delay and the comparative merits of a judge-alone trial was adequate and omissions concerning bail or scheduling were not professionally erroneous.
