SENTENCE
1 HIS HONOUR: Just stand up Mr Baxter, my practice whatever the result is, is to tell people in advance what I am going to sentence them to, so they know, they are not left in suspense. In your case I propose to impose the following sentences. For the possess firearm matter I propose to sentence you to three years imprisonment, that sentence will date from 27 August 2005 and expire on 26 August 2008 and I take that to be the correct commencement date from my notes Mr Crown is that right?
2 CROWN PROSECUTOR: Yes I checked again today and I think that is correct your Honour.
