HKSAR v. Mak Yun Keung

Read the full judgment text of CACC 254/2002 on BabelCite. This Court of Appeal judgment was delivered on 3 September 2002.

1. I have no doubt that the total sentence imposed was appropriate in all of the circumstances of the case. The main offence was the attempted burglary and there was ample reason for the Judge to treat the offence as a serious one. I am not prepared to grant leave to appeal against the sentences imposed.
