- Court of Appeal
Leave to appeal out of time is granted but the substantive appeal is dismissed because the applicant's pre-arrest tipoffs were paid and of limited comparative seriousness; the payments were not insufficient under police guidelines and did not warrant a further discount beyond that given, and the sentencing starting point and cross-border enhancement were within appropriate and lenient bounds.
