- CACC528/1988
The jury rejected the defence of incapacity; the facts demonstrated knowledge and intent; the trial judge properly balanced mitigation (drug dependency, personal circumstances) against the need to denounce bank robbery and protect the public and lawfully reduced the notional nine-year term to six years; therefore leave to appeal against sentence is refused.
