[2004] EWCA Crim 3104

At the appellant's trial for attempted kidnapping the recorder was entitled to give only the first limb of a good character direction as a previous spent conviction was relevant to the offence charged. However, the sentence imposed on the appellant was manifestly excessive and was therefore reduced.
