Key legal question
Whether an appeal limited to sentencing may also extend to revocation of a prior suspended sentence.
Extracted holding
No. The sentencing decision and the revocation of an earlier suspended sentence are so closely connected that they cannot be separated for appellate purposes.
Extracted reasoning
The court held that the overall sanction package must be assessed together. The effect of a new sentence and the revocation of an earlier suspended sentence both matter for prognosis and conditional release, so neither question may be examined in isolation.
