- Court of Appeal
Given the commercial scale of Mr Brown's methamphetamine dealing, the absence of persuasive medical evidence of health effects, and the fact rehabilitation was recognised by a 15% global deduction, the Court found the District Court did not err and the overall sentence was not manifestly excessive; discounts applied were within principled, case‑specific bounds and the appeal was dismissed.
