CACC 416/2017 [2018] HKCA 378 香港特別行政區 高等法院上訴法庭 刑事司法管轄權 刑罰上訴許可申請 刑事上訴案件 2017 年第 416 號 （原區域法院刑事案件 2017 年第 268 號） 答辯人 香港特別行政區 與 申請人 WONG WING YAN TIFFANY (黃詠欣) 審理法官： 高等法院上訴法庭法官張澤祐 聆訊日期：2018 年 6 月 29 日 判決日期：2018 年 6 月 29 日 判決書 申請人承認四項「欺詐」罪及四項「使用虛假文書」罪，被判30個月監禁。申請人就刑期提出上訴許可申請。本案涉及三宗詐騙行為。第一宗是涉及買賣汽車。第二、三宗涉及購買鑽石。涉案金額為4百80萬元，受害人損失為1百67萬8千元。第二、三宗案是申請人在被控第一宗案後擔保期間干犯。 申請人接納刑期是正確，但要求減刑立即釋放，因為她稱父親病重。申請人建議在6個月內賠償受害人$300,000及若果在這期間未能作出賠償會再服刑期。 本席拒絕申請。正如申請人自己接納30 個月監禁是一項正確刑期。申請人之前亦干犯多宗同類性質詐騙罪。她的建議是沒有法理依據及不會被接納。 （張澤祐） 高等法院上訴法庭法官 答辯人：由律政司高級檢控官程慧明代表。 申請人：無律師代表，親自出庭應訊。
