- High Court
The appeal is dismissed because the High Court found no error amounting to a miscarriage of justice: the trial judge applied the correct legal standards, reasonably preferred the firsthand MPI veterinary evidence over the defence expert on the facts, and was entitled to conclude beyond reasonable doubt the rams were unfit for transport at loading.
