- Court of Appeal
None of the contested trial rulings, individually or cumulatively, caused a miscarriage of justice; the jury was entitled to make credibility findings and the verdicts were not unreasonable; substitution of imprisonment with home detention under s80K constitutes alteration of sentence such that, under s7(4)(b) of the Child Protection Act, the appellant ceases to be a registrable offender; s80K(8) does not prevent that outcome.
