The appeal is dismissed because the magistrate applied established sentencing starting points and properly reduced sentences for guilty pleas, the partly consecutive structure was justified given distinct and repeated offences so the totality of 18 months and six weeks imprisonment was not excessive, and the suspended sentence was correctly activated and ordered consecutive under section 109C absent special circumstances.
