[2008] EWCA Crim 2867

The principle of proportionality between the time served for attempted murder and the minimum term which would have been served had the attempt been successful could be maintained by reducing a sentence of 18 years' imprisonment to 15 years where the attack resulted in serious damage but there were mitigating factors.
