The two defendants, aged 18 at the time, were convicted of robbing a 15-year-old student of his cell phone at their high school.
The Crown sought 2 to 4 months in jail followed by 18 months probation, while the defence sought probation.
The court considered the defendants' youth, first-time offender status, and post-offence conduct.
Emphasizing specific deterrence and rehabilitation, the court sentenced both defendants to three years of probation with strict conditions, including restitution of $350 each, a 10-year weapons prohibition, and a DNA order.
