Despite an unexplained two-year delay, the court granted an extension of time and leave to appeal because there existed a plainly arguable ground — that the applicant’s voluntary confession, said to have occurred after he returned specifically to surrender, might justify a greater discount and affect whether the immigration sentence should run consecutively; leave was given so the Court of Appeal can determine these contested facts and the proper exercise of discretion.
