R v RYAN
Court of Criminal Appeal: Prior, Perry and Williams JJ
Prior J
This is an application for leave to appeal against sentence. The applicant received a sentence of five years and ten months imprisonment with a non-parole period of three years and nine months to run from 16 June 1997. He had pleaded guilty in the District Court to selling heroin.
The matter has been considered by the Court of Criminal Appeal in private in accordance with the rules, an application for leave having been refused by a single judge on 7 November 1997.
Perry, Williams JJ and I are of the opinion that the application for leave to appeal should be refused. In our opinion the appeal has no prospect of success. The case for a reduction in sentence is not reasonably arguable. The application is refused on that ground.
