The Court held that the sentencing judge's starting point of 19 years and the reduction of just over a third for the early plea produced a sentence that was appropriate in all the circumstances; the application for leave to appeal was dismissed and the court exercised its discretion to exclude three months of time served pending the hearing from counting towards the sentence because the application lacked merit.
