170 After decision on appeal Court may enforce same (1) When any finding of guilt or order has been affirmed, amended, or made upon any appeal, the Court will have the same authority to enforce the finding of guilt or order as if it had not been appealed against, or had been made in the first instance. (1A) If a person found guilty and committed into the custody of the Commissioner of Correctional Services appeals and is released on bail under the Bail Act 1982 pending the outcome of his appeal, and the Supreme Court on appeal orders that the balance or some part of the balance of his sentence be served, the Local Court may by warrant remand the appellant to his former custody, there to serve the balance of the term to be served by him. (2) No action or proceedings whatsoever shall be commenced or had against the Court or any person constituting the Court for enforcing the finding of guilt or order by reason of any defect in the finding of guilt or order.
