The Court of Appeal summarily dismissed the appellant's appeal against a one-month imprisonment sentence for assault causing actual bodily harm. The appellant argued for leniency, but the court emphasized his extremely bad criminal record as a material factor justifying the original decision. Consequently, the court found no reason to interfere with the trial judge's sentence and rejected the appeal.
