- High Court
The proceeding was struck out as an abuse of process under r 5.35B because it constituted an impermissible collateral attack on criminal proceedings, judicial review was not the appropriate remedy where an appeal right exists, and the claim was hopeless given the applicant's conviction, thereby meeting the high threshold for strike out.
