Supreme Court to consider state bid for appeal over Graham Dwyer data ruling

Three Supreme Court judges will meet next week to consider whether to hear a "leapfrog" appeal by the State against an important ruling in favour of convicted murderer Graham Dwyer.

The High Court ruling, given in judicial review proceedings by Dwyer concerning the use of mobile phone data at his trial, forms part of Dwyer's bid to overturn his conviction for the murder of childcare worker Elaine O'Hara.
