Notes:
From the website - "The ?chapters? below summarise key research about the impacts of experiences of disadvantage, and strengths-based rehabilitation. While a key function of this project is to assist legal practitioners in the preparation and presentation of evidence to establish the application of the sentencing principles in Bugmy v The Queen (2013) 249 CLR 571, these materials may also have relevance in other contexts, including bail, mental health diversionary applications, civil practice areas, coronial inquests and other inquisitorial jurisdictions."
