- Court of Appeal
Extension of time granted due to credible COVID-related communication difficulties; on merits there was no error in sentencing: appellant received generous overall discounts, the reparation offer did not justify additional reduction because equivalent credit was already applied, the s27 material did not establish a causal nexus to reduce culpability, and the guilty plea credit awarded was appropriate given the unsuccessful and partially unmeritorious disputed facts hearing.
