The appellant appealed his conviction and sentence for possession of stolen property.
He raised issues regarding the voluntariness of his statement to police, a warrantless search, trial judge interference, the jury charge on recent possession, and the trial judge's answer to a jury question about a missing witness.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the conviction appeal, finding no errors by the trial judge that undermined the fairness of the trial.
Leave to appeal the conditional sentence was granted, but the sentence appeal was dismissed as there was no error in principle.
