SADLER v NEW ZEALAND POLICE [2020] NZHC 2681
- Citation
- [2020] NZHC 2681
- Court
- High Court
Section 119 of the Land Transport Act 1998 authorised police to remain on the appellant's property and conduct breath testing after pursuit and stop signals, so no tenable defence existed; counsel correctly advised the appellant to plead guilty and did not coerce him; pre-sentence report issues were corrected and the sentence was not manifestly excessive, therefore the appeal against conviction and sentence is dismissed.
