Appeal from sentence of 12 months imprisonment for breach of restraining order.
Held: ‘Whilst accepting that this was a severe sentence, we are of the view that it was wholly justified in the context of the history of this case and the learned judge is not to be criticised at all for his imposition of that sentence. Accordingly this appeal fails.’
