- Court of Appeal
The Court held the sentencing Judge's total 25% discount (10% for background including cannabis use, 10% for youth, 5% for good character) was within the permissible range; no separate cannabis addiction discount was required; bail conditions were not restrictive enough to merit a discount; the resulting sentence of four years and six months imprisonment was not manifestly excessive, so the appeal is dismissed.
