[2004] EWCA Crim 428

A 240 hour community punishment order and a four month curfew for an offence of conspiracy to defraud was unduly lenient. However, given the exceptional circumstances that the defendant was working, had completed the curfew and had served a third of his community punishment order, the sentence would not be interfered with.
