1. This is an appeal against sentence imposed upon the appellant in the Tuen Mun Magistracy following his pleas of guilty to offences of assault occasioning actual bodily harm and criminal damage. The sentence imposed was one of detention in a Training Centre.

2. There are no arguable grounds of appeal. The learned magistrate cannot, in my view, be faulted either in the sentence she imposed or in her reasons for it.

3. The appeal is accordingly dismissed.
