Key legal question
Whether the public law appeal was admissible to challenge evidence assessment and the presumption of innocence.
Extracted holding
The public law appeal was available for these complaints because a nullity appeal did not cover arbitrary evidence assessment or direct constitutional/conventional grievances.
Extracted reasoning
The Federal Court held that the nullity appeal was not open for such claims, so public law review was the proper avenue; the appellant had standing because the conviction was upheld.
