Leave to appeal was granted only on the narrow point that it was reasonably arguable the trial judge may have misapplied the law on the 'reasonable grounds to believe' test (treatment of subjective belief versus objective assessment) and thus leave on ground 1 was granted; the judge's reliance on Skype/email evidence was properly admissible and not criminal conduct per se and therefore ground 3 was not reasonably arguable; the sentence was within the appropriate range and no arguable error was identified so leave to appeal sentence was refused.
