The Court held the conviction was safe because the judge properly accepted the consistent witness and documentary evidence that the true agreed selling price was $13.2m and that the applicant conspired dishonestly to understate it to $8.2m; on sentence the Court held that sentencing must reflect the scale of the conspiracy (circa $4–5m deprived) and the applicant's position of trust, and that five years' imprisonment was appropriate, therefore leave to appeal on conviction and sentence was refused.
