DODD v NEW ZEALAND POLICE [2021] NZHC 2059
- Citation

- Court
- High Court
Because proceedings for sexual offending were commenced within six months of seizure, s151 permitted police to lawfully retain the seized laptop and phones as evidentially relevant; subsequent inspection did not render retention unlawful; the appeal had no prospect of success and the extension of time was refused.
