- High Court
Appellant did not prove he received affirmative erroneous advice that he would serve only one third of any sentence; he already knew of the second-strike consequences from prior oral and written warnings and duty solicitor advice, and his guilty pleas were therefore not induced by counsel error; however the sentencing Judge erred by not formally ordering the full term without parole under s86C(4), so sentence is remitted for re-sentencing.
