The Court held the magistrate did not err in principle or in exercise of discretion: the starting point and discounted sentence were within the appropriate range, the $20,000 fine was not necessarily beyond the appellant's means despite public assistance, and the total sentence (12 months imprisonment concurrent and $20,000 fine) was not manifestly excessive; appeal dismissed.
