The appellate court accepted the Chinese two-way permit as sufficiently reliable evidence that the appellant entered lawfully in 2003 and was an over-stayer; the guilty plea remained valid; applying the sentencing guidelines for over-stayers the court reduced the sentence for unlawful remaining from 15 months to 9 months and dismissed the challenge to the conviction.
