The offender pleaded guilty to aggravated assault after striking and kicking the victim in the face, causing severe injuries including a broken jaw and orbital bone.
The Crown sought a 12-month sentence less pre-trial custody, while the defence sought time served.
The court considered the offender's guilty plea, pre-trial custody conditions, and house arrest as mitigating factors, but found the gravity of the offence and the offender's prior record required a custodial sentence.
The offender was sentenced to 1 year in custody less 307 days credit, plus probation, a weapons prohibition, a DNA order, and restitution of $14,296.63.
