Rohan Dennis's lawyers tell court it is 'inappropriate' for judge to preside in driving disqualified case

In short:

Lawyers for Rohan Dennis have applied to have Judge Ian Press recused from presiding over his case of driving disqualified.

Judge Press presided over a previous trial involving Dennis, where he was given a suspended sentence and driving disqualification over a 2023 crash that killed his wife Melissa Hoskins.

Prosecutors told the court there was nothing inappropriate or unusual about a sentencing judge hearing breach proceedings.
