The High Court held there was no reason to interfere with the Magistrate's 5‑year sentence because the Magistrate properly considered the appellant's multiple prior convictions, the public interest, and the nature of lurking house‑trespass under section 457; the low monetary value of stolen property did not require reduction of a sentence imposed for a house‑trespass offence involving habitual offending.
