Former New South Wales police officer Kristian White has sought to appeal against his sacking from the force after he was convicted of manslaughter for fatally shooting a 95-year-old woman in a nursing home with a Taser.

White was sacked in early December just days after a jury in the NSW supreme court found him guilty of the manslaughter of Clare Nowland.
