The application for leave to appeal was dismissed because the Court of Appeal had an adequate evidential basis for the verdict, the challenge to DNA admissibility did not demonstrate a miscarriage of justice (and a compulsory sample was likely), and the application failed to meet s 13(2) criteria of the Supreme Court Act 2003.
