Regina v Crossman and Crossman: CACD 15 Jul 1997

The appellants had been convicted of substantial offences of dishonesty, committed through the vehicle of a haulage business. They appealed sentences of 5 and 2 years imprisonment. The case had taken a long time to come to court, and the senior defendant was at risk of bankruptcy. The judge had failed to make proper allowance for these factors, and shorter sentences of three and a half years, and fifteen months were substituted.
