POLOSAK v R [2023] NZCA 40

- Court of Appeal
Leave for a second appeal was declined because the Court was satisfied the District and High Courts properly assessed the gravity of the offending, appropriately applied mitigating discounts, reasonably concluded the consequences of conviction were not disproportionate nor likely to cause extreme hardship, and the applicant failed to meet the high threshold of a miscarriage of justice or public importance to justify a second appeal.
