BUNTING v R [2020] NZCA 240

- Court of Appeal
Recall was declined because the disciplinary findings against trial counsel arising from other cases did not demonstrate a miscarriage of justice in this particular trial; the Court had previously assessed counsel's performance in this trial as adequate on the record, and the applicant failed to satisfy the Smith/Lyon requirement that a substantial miscarriage of justice would result if the error is not corrected.
