The question is being raised of whether Winston Peters is owed an apology after the Serious Fraud Office's case against the New Zealand First Foundation failed.
The SFO took the party's foundation to the Court of Appeal over two men —who have continuing name suppression— who handled the party's donations.
Peters wants an apology from the SFO, but one legal professional says he shouldn't get one.
Constitutional law expert Andrew Geddis told Mike Hosking that the office did the right thing.
He says they had to act, and the foundation's actions were unlawful.
