[2019] VCC 259
General information, not legal advice.
County Court of Victoria
2019-02-15
Original judgment source is linked above.
1 On 6 December 2108 the applicant filed a document seeking deferral of sentence pursuant to s 83A of the Sentencing Act 1991 in relation to case numbers CR-16-01438, CR-16-01524 and CR-17-01172. The deferral of sentencing applications were accompanied by applications for bail in respect of those proceedings.
2 The background to this matter is that I am currently reserved in relation to sentence on these matters and but for a number of collateral and ancillary proceedings brought by the applicant over a period of some months, I would have sentenced him some time ago.
3 By letter dated 11 February 2019 the applicant advised the Registrar of this Court that he wished to withdraw the deferral of sentencing applications and the bail applications in respect of these proceedings as enumerated. Apparently he also intends to withdraw a separate bail application in case number CR1801161.
4 The applications having been withdrawn, the orders of the Court are the deferral of sentencing applications are struck out as withdrawn and on the bail applications no order is made.
5 I propose to pass sentence on the applicant in relation to the remaining charges in case numbers CR-16-01438, CR-16-01524 and CR-17-01172 at 9.30am on 1 March 2019. Those matters will be adjourned to that date and the applicant/accused is remanded in custody until that date and time.
