GOODALL v NZ POLICE [2017] NZHC 92

- Court
- High Court
The High Court upheld the District Court's refusal of bail because the Judge lawfully exercised discretion: a custodial sentence was likely given the appellant's repeated protection order breaches and physical offending, the appellant failed to discharge the onus to show bail was in the interests of justice, and the Judge properly weighed personal circumstances, risk of reoffending and victim safety.
