The appellant pleaded guilty to firearms offences and was sentenced to 30 months' imprisonment.
He appealed the sentence, arguing the sentencing judge erred by granting inadequate credit for strict pre-sentence bail conditions and by misapplying the framework for considering systemic anti-Black racism.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding the sentencing judge made no error in principle in quantifying the bail credit and correctly applied the requirement to find 'some connection' between the appellant's experiences of racism and the offences.
