HALPIN v R [2018] NZCA 477

- Court of Appeal
The affidavit evidence did not demonstrate a tenable defence and the guilty pleas were entered as a reasoned, informed decision after proper legal advice and a sentence indication; therefore no miscarriage of justice arose and the application to vacate the pleas was properly declined.
