The magistrate's sentences were not wrong in principle nor manifestly excessive; the guideline 15‑month sentence for s38AA offences applies, a custodial sentence for the trade mark offence with a three‑month starting point is appropriate, the totality principle was observed by ordering sentences to run concurrently, and the appellant's personal mitigation did not justify reducing the sentences; therefore the appeal is dismissed and the sentences are affirmed.
