CRAMMOND v R [2022] NZHC 3444

Citation

[2022] NZHC 3444
Court

High Court

The appeal is dismissed because the end sentence was within the available range and not manifestly excessive; the Judge correctly followed the sentencing indication and applied appropriate discounts; further discount or home detention was not warranted given the appellant's denial of responsibility and the need for deterrence and denunciation; removal from the sex offenders' register is not available.

VIKRAM ABRAHAM JOSEPH V A PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT COMMITTEE HC WN CIV 2013-485-47

Citation

Court

High Court

The High Court found no error in the Tribunal's factual conclusion that the appellant intentionally accessed child pornography; the Tribunal's suspension and conditions were within the reasonable range given the need to protect the public and uphold professional standards, but the combined financial burden of the costs award and required rehabilitation programme was disproportionate, warranting reduction of the costs contribution from 35% to 5%.
