SURENDER SINGH MEHROK v R [2021] NZSC 155
- Citation
- [2021] NZSC 155
- Court
- Supreme Court
Leave to appeal was refused because the issues raised had insufficient prospects of success on the facts; questions about s 9(2)(fa) are factual and do not require new principle, overlapping concessions must not be double counted, prior offending that predated the index offence may be considered for culpability and risk even if convictions were entered later, and a reduced youth discount was justified by lack of remorse and limited rehabilitation.
