Napoli v R [2016] NSWCCA 232

Napoli v R [2016] NSWCCA 232

Differences between the applicant's case and those of Huynh and Harb adequately explain and justify the differences in sentence. The applicant's higher placement in the conspiracy hierarchy, lack of assistance to authorities, and less positive subjective case support the sentences imposed. No marked disparity warranting appellate intervention is established.
