- High Court
The District Court lawfully exercised its discretion to remit outstanding fines and enforcement fees and substitute the minimum 40 hours community work; statutory preconditions were satisfied by the means assessment and consideration, the sentence was within the lawful range, and the appellant's medical complaint should be addressed by an application to the District Court to cancel or vary the sentence rather than by appeal.
