The appellant sought leave to appeal a decision of the summary conviction appeal court dismissing his appeal from conviction.
The Court of Appeal denied leave, finding that the proposed appeal raised an issue of mixed fact and law rather than a pure question of law, and did not engage the interest of the general administration of justice.
The court also found that the trial was not unfair, as the appellant had received adequate disclosure, and the trial judge's challenged remark was merely an attempt to assist a self-represented accused.
