On balancing the relevant factors (seriousness, strength and clarity of evidence, delay, prejudice to the appellant, prior detention and mitigation) the court concluded there was not a reasonable prospect of conviction and that ordering a retrial would not be in the public interest; accordingly the prosecution's application for a retrial was refused and the earlier quashing of conviction and sentence stands.
