The applicant brought motions to re-open two appeals that had been dismissed as abandoned due to non-attendance and non-compliance.
The first motion related to a summary conviction appeal, which the court dismissed because it did not meet the test for leave to appeal.
The second motion related to a conviction appeal for failing to comply with a court order.
The court dismissed the second motion, finding that the explanation offered for the non-attendance and non-compliance was cast into serious doubt by information before the court, and it would not be in the interests of justice to re-open the appeal.
