PATERSON v NEW ZEALAND POLICE [2020] NZHC 1532
- Citation
- [2020] NZHC 1532
- Court
- High Court
Although the District Court Judge may have referred to the co‑defendant's criminal record in error, considering the appellant's limited prior convictions, guilty plea, the statutory maximum penalty and the purpose of the sentence, the come‑up‑if‑called within nine months order was within the available range and not manifestly excessive, so the appeal is dismissed.
