The Court accepted the Court of Appeal's sentencing documents as establishing lawful authority for detention and declined to entertain a habeas corpus challenge that in substance sought to re‑open and appeal the correctness of the Court of Appeal's sentencing decision; accordingly the habeas corpus application was dismissed and the applicant's detention was held to be lawful.
