Mihai Stancu named in High Court suspended-sentence ruling

By Fionn Kelly

This report is a localnews.ie summary based on public court reporting and records; sources are listed below.

Mihai Stancu was named as a plaintiff in a High Court judicial review judgment delivered on 19 April 2016, concerning suspended-sentence procedures under section 99 of the Criminal Justice Act 2006.

Mr Justice Moriarty granted a declaration that the provisions under review were unconstitutional because they curtailed an accused person's right of appeal and created unequal treatment between similarly situated accused persons.

The supplied capture stops during the quotation of section 99, before the individual case histories signalled in the introduction. It therefore does not establish Mr Stancu's specific offences, sentence or individual operative outcome, or what the full judgment states about those matters.
