- High Court
The High Court found no legal error affecting the District Court's decision: the applicant was in fact prohibited from applying for a limited licence by s 103(2)(c), and the Judge refused to apply s 94 not because of a mistaken belief about limited licence availability but because the applicant's extensive and repeated offending made substitution inappropriate; the combined sentence of six months' community detention and 15 months' disqualification was not manifestly excessive, so the appeal was dismissed.
