- High Court
Court quashed the criminal harassment conviction because several of the emails relied on to establish the necessary pattern either formed the subject of other charges that were pleaded or were withdrawn in circumstances that amounted to dismissal/previous conviction issues, leaving insufficient distinct acts to sustain the harassment offence; convictions for unauthorised access were upheld based on findings that the appellant lacked authority and credibility of her account was rejected by the Judge.
