Millie Elder's lawyer to question legality of warrant

Broadcaster Paul Holmes' stepdaughter Millie Elder will try to get drug charges against her thrown out later this year over the legality of a search warrant.

Elder and her boyfriend Connor Morris, both 20, reappeared in Auckland District Court today facing a charge of possessing methamphetamine.

Their lawyer Owen Harold said he wanted to challenge the legality of the search warrant.

It will be challenged at a defended hearing at Auckland District Court in late June. If the charge is not thrown out the substantive defended hearing will be held immediately afterwards.

Elder, wearing a white singlet and jeans, and Morris, wearing a black t-shirt, were remanded on bail.
