    CACC7/2020

    Bail pending appeal was granted because the appellant demonstrated reasonably arguable grounds of appeal with a reasonable prospect of success, the respondent did not oppose bail, and although there was a real likelihood the sentence would have been served before the appeal, the appellant accepted the risk of returning to custody if unsuccessful; the proposed bail terms provided adequate safeguards to ensure surrender to court.
