- Court of Appeal
The Court concluded the 10 year robbery sentence imposed under the three strikes regime was grossly disproportionate in breach of s 9 NZBORA given the appropriate ordinary sentence would have been 18 months; accordingly the 10 year sentence was quashed and substituted with 18 months' imprisonment and the concurrent lower sentences were left intact; an order under s 34 CP(MIP)A was not appropriate.
