HAWEA-EDWARDS v R [2021] NZCA 52

- Court of Appeal
Leave to bring a second appeal and further evidence were permitted but the appeal was dismissed because the High Court correctly applied s 200: the judge validly accepted expert evidence of suicide risk but properly assessed that custodial risk management and likely dissipation of publicity by the time of release meant publication was not likely to cause extreme hardship or endanger safety; deferral to 30 April 2021 was an appropriate risk-management measure.
