JUDGMENT 1. HIS HONOUR: On 7 September 2022, Harrison J granted Luke Sparos ('the applicant') conditional bail – of some stringency. On 3 March 2023 the applicant's bail conditions were varied by Ierace J, following an application brought by the Crown, which placed further restrictions on the applicant. 2. The applicant seeks to vary the bail conditions (essentially, the residency and curfew conditions). The Crown opposes the variations sought. The Crown also applies to vary, in a limited way, those bail conditions. The applicant opposes that variation.
