LYONEL MANUREWA TE POU TANIWHA v R [2015] NZSC 200
- Citation
- [2015] NZSC 200
- Court
- Supreme Court
Leave to appeal was granted because the Supreme Court concluded that important questions of law warranted consideration: whether the absence of a tailored demeanour direction could have caused a miscarriage of justice and whether evidence of a later breach required a 'proper use' direction; these issues raise matters of public and legal importance suitable for appellate determination.
