Creche Case |

The Court of Appeal will give its decision on an
appeal by Christchurch childcare worker Peter Ellis on Thursday. The court, consisting of Sir Robin Cooke, Sir
Maurice Casey, and Justice Gault, reserved its decision when submissions
finished on July 29. Ellis is appealing against 16 convictions on
charges that he molested children in his care at the Christchurch Civic
Childcare Centre between 1986 and 1991. He is serving a 10-year jail sentence. |
