Procedural Posture

Criminal Appeal – Bail Pending Appeal / Second Application for Bail Pending Appeal After Conviction and Sentence

  1. 1 Whether the amended grounds of appeal raise issues that are reasonably arguable
  2. 2 Whether there has been a new and substantial change of circumstances since the first bail refusal
  3. 3 Whether the time factor and humanitarian considerations justify bail pending appeal

Ratio Decidendi

Bail pending appeal was granted because the court could not conclude at the bail stage that the amended grounds were not reasonably arguable, there had been a substantive change in circumstances since the first refusal, and the combination of the time factor (possible completion of the sentence before appeal hearing) and humanitarian considerations (age and health) made continued detention unfair; the court will determine bail conditions after hearing submissions.
