The court held the sentencing judge correctly applied relevant precedents and principles: adopted 15 months as base for each theft enhanced by 9 months for repeat offending (24 months), applied same starting point to possession of nine identity cards as an aggravating factor, allowed a 15% reduction for a late guilty plea, and properly applied totality by structuring concurrent sentences with 15 months consecutive to result in an overall sentence of 35 months; the renewed leave application and appeal were refused and dismissed.
