Community Corrections Order; Multiple serious offences

GD was charged with a number of offences including contravene prohibition in AVO, stalk / intimidate intend fear physical etc harm, destroy or damage property, contravene restriction in AVO and stalk/intimidate intend fear physical etc harm.

GD was initially refused bail, however Chris Cole was able to persuade the Magistrate to allow for conditional bail.

When these offences were committed, GD was on two Community Correction Orders.

Chris made strong oral submissions to ensure GD wasn’t incarcerated.

The Magistrate imposed an aggregate sentence for all the offences of 18 months, which was to be served in the community as an intensive corrections order.

This is a fantastic outcome for GD.
