- High Court
The High Court found the offending was a moderately serious attempt to pervert the course of justice and that a starting point of about three years with three uplifts of three months each fell within range; although the uplift for breach of parole might have been marginally higher than the concurrent one month sentences, the end sentence of two years nine months (after a 25% guilty plea reduction) was not manifestly excessive and the appeal was dismissed.
