- Court of Appeal
The appeal was dismissed as moot because the practical relief sought (publication of the respondent's name) had been achieved when the respondent abandoned his conviction appeal and the interim suppression was revoked; the Court held the factual circumstances were unusual and not of sufficient general or public importance to justify deciding a moot issue despite full argument.
