The appellant appealed his convictions for dangerous driving causing death and bodily harm.
The convictions arose from an incident where the appellant and his cousin were driving at excessive speeds in close proximity, resulting in the cousin's vehicle losing control and striking another car, killing the cousin and injuring two others.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, upholding the trial judge's findings on factual causation and tandem driving.
The Court also upheld the trial judge's discretionary decision to refuse the appellant's post-verdict application to re-open the defence case to adduce fresh evidence regarding a prosecution witness's credibility.
