- CACC412/1988
The applicant's complaint was without merit because the trial judge's sentencing approach was reasonable and properly took into account quantity, guilty pleas and extensive prior convictions; any apparent advantage the applicant obtained from statutory limits (s.82) does not render the appeal sustainable, therefore the application for leave to appeal against sentence is dismissed and both sentences are ordered to commence immediately.
- Possession of dangerous drugs for trafficking
- Sentencing limits of district court (s.82)
- Concurrent and consecutive sentences
- Totality principle
