- High Court
Leave was granted for a recognised NZME representative to attend the in‑chambers case management conference but applications to film, photograph or record sound were declined because chambers hearings are ordinarily not recorded, no exceptional circumstances justified departure from the rule given the early stage of proceedings and likelihood of suppression applications, and Wandering Films did not fall within the media definition in the Guidelines.
