[2022]GCA030 - Falla v Law Officers of the Crown

View printable version

Application for leave to appeal against Sentence, on the grounds that: (1) the sentence is manifestly excessive as the Appellant was sentenced on the basis that he was “evidently a supplier in some form or another” without justification, (2) the sentence for Count 3 was manifestly excessive as the weight was deemed to ‘add considerably to the store available’ on the island, but this was an irrelevant aggravating feature as this was not an importation offence and (3) the sentence for Count 3 was manifestly excessive as the quantity was deemed ‘very large’ but insufficient weight was placed on the fact that the THC comprised only a very small percentage of the total weight of the foods and syrups.
