- Court of Appeal
The appeal was dismissed under s 338(1) of the Criminal Procedure Act 2011 because the appellant repeatedly and egregiously failed to comply with multiple court directions to file particularised grounds despite ample opportunities and notice, and because the claimed grounds showed no evident merit; the interests of justice did not require preservation of an abandoned, meritless appeal.
