The High Court held the District Court did not err in law: the Judge reasonably accepted counsel's evidence, supported by the handwritten schedule and explanations, that the defendant had been informed of the s66 jury election in respect of the 18 charges; credibility findings were open to the Judge and did not amount to an aberrant decision tainting the s75 exercise; accordingly refusal to grant a re-hearing was lawful and convictions stand.
