The appellant appealed her sentence of 23 months in jail and a restitution order of $7,781.29 for driving-related offences and breach of probation.
The Court of Appeal upheld the custodial sentence, noting the appellant's horrendous record of drinking and driving offences and lifetime driving bans.
However, the Court allowed the appeal in part by deleting the restitution order, as the trial judge failed to consider the appellant's ability to pay.
