The trial magistrate's acceptance of the prosecution evidence and credibility findings was entitled to deference; the notebook timing error was a negligent clerical error not fatal to credibility, and the sentence of 9 months fell within the appropriate starting point and was justified by the defendant's addiction and antecedents; appeal against conviction and sentence dismissed.
