- Court of Appeal
Leave for a second appeal is declined because the applicant failed to demonstrate a real risk of miscarriage of justice: the trial Judge's admissions rulings on hearsay and propensity were within legal bounds, the inferences from DNA, stolen property, CCTV and modus operandi were permissible and sufficient to support convictions, and the sentence (including uplift for prior offending and minimum period) was not manifestly excessive.
