Photo: NZ HeraldFormer Justice Minister Kiri Allan’s court case for crashing her car in Wellington has been put off for a third time, with the case yet to have its first hearing despite the incident happening more than three months ago. Allan was initially due to appear in court on Monday, September 4, but that appearance was also “administratively adjourned”, at the request of counsel, until September 14. It was put off to the next available case review hearing date in November, with Allan’s case due to be called tomorrow. Following the car crash, Allan gave emotional statements saying she would not stand for re-election, and would be leaving politics for now.
