CRIMES (SENTENCING PROCEDURE) ACT 1999 - SECT 99

99 Consequences of revocation of good behaviour bond

(1) If a court revokes a good behaviour bond:

(a) in the case of a bond referred to in section 9, it may re-sentence the offender for the offence to which the bond relates, or

(b) in the case of a bond referred to in section 10, it may convict and sentence the offender for the offence to which the bond relates, or

(c) in the case of a bond referred to in section 12:

(i) the order under section 12 (1) (a) ceases to have effect in relation to the sentence of imprisonment suspended by the order, and

(ii) Part 4 applies to the sentence, as if the sentence were being imposed by the court following revocation of the good behaviour bond, and section 24 applies in relation to the setting of a non-parole period under that Part.

(2) Subject to Parts 5 and 6, a court may, on revoking a good behaviour bond referred to in section 12, make an order directing that the sentence of imprisonment to which the bond relates is to be served by way of periodic detention or home detention.

(3) An order made under subsection (2) is taken to be a periodic detention order made under section 6 or a home detention order made under section 7, as the case requires.

(4) This Act applies to the sentencing or re-sentencing of an offender under this section in the same way as it applies to the sentencing of an offender on a conviction.

(5) An offender who under this section is sentenced by a court for an offence has the same rights of appeal as the offender would have had if the offender had been sentenced by that court on being convicted of the offence.
