DAVID NOEL ROIGARD v R [2019] NZSC 63
- Citation
- [2019] NZSC 63
- Court
- Supreme Court
Leave to appeal against conviction was granted limited to the specific approved question whether the Court of Appeal erred in upholding admissibility of the proposed evidence of witnesses F and W to permit argument under the Evidence Act 2006 (including ss7 and 8); the Court declined to revisit Hudson's no‑presumption rule; leave against sentence and other grounds was declined because they did not meet the miscarriage of justice or public importance thresholds.
