[2012] EWCA Crim 421

When making confiscation orders against offenders who had embarked on a joint venture and had benefited jointly from their drug-related criminal conduct, a judge had been entitled not to apportion the benefit figure among them. It was entirely legitimate that the offenders each bore the risk of the entire sum jointly obtained, and not merely their share in that sum.
