HH faced charges of ‘Destroy / damage property’, contrary to s 195(1)(A) Crimes Act 1900, and ‘Stalk / intimidate’, contrary to s 13 Crimes Act 1900. James Castillo acted for HH in the matter. The maximum Sentence for each charge is 5 years imprisonment.
The matter proceeded to Sentence where James Castillo tendered various materials and made oral submissions on HH’s behalf. Ultimately, His Honour imposed a Community Corrections Order for the duration of 12 months, subject to the conditions that HH is of good behaviour, and must appear before the court if called upon to do so. His Honour made a Compensation Order for damages, and an AVO was finalised for a period of 2 years.
This is a pleasing result for HH.
