[2004] EWCA Crim 1693

In all the circumstances a sentence of three years for assault occasioning actual bodily harm and possession of an offensive weapon was not manifestly excessive as the judge had correctly approached the matter as a totality decision. Domestic violence should be treated no differently from any other type of violence.
