‘The sentencing judge did not receive the assistance from counsel that he was entitled to.’ It is this sort of phrase which sends shivers down the spine of the criminal barrister and one which means that the blame is publicly laid at the door of the overworked barrister rather than the sentencing judge who fell into error.
All is not lost because coming to the rescue is the latest version of the encyclopaedic Banks on Sentence, now in its 19th edition. It comes in two volumes, which makes it more of a library book than something you can carry with you. However, it also comes in a useful electronic format.
The first volume covers the different sentencing orders available (which sensibly also include their breach provisions), while volume two focuses on the sentencing provisions applicable to different offences.
