[2013] EWCA Crim 611

A sentence of 14 months' detention after a guilty plea to burglary of a dwelling-house was not manifestly excessive. The judge had not erred in uplifting the starting point to 21 months to reflect the extent of the young offender's previous convictions and the fact that the offence had taken place whilst the young offender was on bail.
