Supreme Court agrees to hear 'leapfrog' State appeal Graham Dwyer mobile data ruling

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a "leapfrog" appeal by the State against an important ruling in favour of convicted murderer Graham Dwyer. A hearing date for the appeal will be fixed later.

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