RAUMATI v NEW ZEALAND POLICE [2021] NZHC 1641
- Citation
- [2021] NZHC 1641
- Court
- High Court
Leave to appeal out of time was granted because the delay was credibly explained and the proposed appeals had merit; the zero alcohol licence imposed in 2013 was invalid because s 65B LTA 1998 is prospective, and accordingly the 2017 conviction for breaching that licence was quashed and the 2013 sentence amended to remove the zero alcohol licence requirement while the remainder of the sentence stands applied to the excess breath alcohol charge alone.
