REGINA v Leslie KALACHE
JUDGMENT
SULLY J:
Introduction 1 The Director of Public Prosecutions appeals, pursuant to Section 5D of the Criminal Appeal Act 1912 (NSW), against a number of sentences imposed upon Mr. Leslie Kalache, ("the respondent"). The sentences were imposed in the District Court at Sydney on 6 May 1999, and by his Honour Judge G. D. Woods QC. The Director's challenge to the sentences is that they are inadequate. 2 On 6 May 1999 the respondent entered pleas of guilty to six counts spread over two indictments. On a separate and earlier occasion the respondent had pleaded guilty to a seventh charge. The seven charges are set out hereunder. Noted in connection with each individual charge are the statutory maximum penalty applicable to that charge, and the sentence in fact imposed in respect of that charge.
