ISEI KORODRAU

v

STATE

Date of Ruling: 28 June 2017

RULING

[1] The applicant applies for leave to judicially review a decision made by the Director of Public Prosecutions (“DPP”) to charge him with an offence, when he had previously been discharged from the matter following the entry of a nolle prosequi.

[2] Apart from the fact that a judicial review is totally inappropriate to administrative decisions of the DPP, any grievance with Court proceedings must be addressed by resort to the provisions of Part XV of the Criminal Procedure Act 2009.

[3] The application for leave to review is refused.
