R v SK
SK was charged with ‘possess prohibited drug’ contrary to section 10(1) of the Drug (Misuse and Trafficking) Act 1985.
Chris Cole represented SK in the Downing Centre Local Court.
The presiding Magistrate accepted representations made on behalf of SK, and dismissed the matter pursuant to section 10(1)(a) of the Crimes (Sentencing Procedure) Act 1999.
She did not receive a criminal conviction.
This was a great result for SK as she was able to avoid any criminal record.
