    The High Court's refused a gang member's challenge of his gang patch conviction

    The High Court's refused a gang member's challenge of his gang patch conviction


    Open Justice reports Mana Brown was convicted and discharged for wearing a Nomads cap at a community pool reopening in Wellington's Naenae in 2024.

    Brown argued it was unfair to tar someone for wearing a cap and he should have been discharged without conviction.

    Justice Christine Grice disagreed and dismissed his lawyer's suggestion the offending was harmless.

    She says his past criminal history is a factor.
