Because Mr Max played a subsidiary role in an ongoing course of moderately serious fraud that deceived the regulator, lacked direct financial gain and had significant mitigating personal circumstances and community contribution, his starting point was fixed at 70% of O'Brien's, reduced for mitigation to 24 months, and that sentence was properly and appropriately substituted with the maximum 12 months home detention with conditions; no discount was to be given for six weeks on remand.
