"Justice Nation held that it will be possible to empanel a jury for Dr Skantha's trial in Dunedin that will be able to keep to their judicial promise to reach a verdict solely on the evidence that is put before them,'' a document released by the court said.

Skantha was a doctor at Dunedin Hospital when he was charged with Amber-Rose's murder.
