- High Court
On fresh assessment the appellant proved the District Court judge erred: the evidential material did not support a real and appreciable risk of 'extreme hardship' under s 200(2)(a) CPA, so the statutory threshold was not met and interim name suppression could not be justified; accordingly the appeal is allowed and suppression is set aside.
