The appeal was dismissed because the appellant pleaded guilty, admitted factual particulars, had his palmprint found on the victim's locker, made admissions recorded in probation and Training Centre reports, was represented by duty counsel who did not indicate any equivocal plea or procedural irregularity, and there was no credible evidence of coercion or timely application to reverse the plea; accordingly there were no grounds to overturn the conviction.
