The Criminal Justice Act 1988 (Reviews of Sentencing) (Amendment) Order 2012
This Order amends the Criminal Justice Act 1988 (Reviews of Sentencing) Order 2006 (S.I. 2006/1116) (“the 2006 Order”). The 2006 Order describes cases to which Part 4 of the Criminal Justice Act 1988 (c. 33) is to apply. That Part empowers the Attorney General to refer certain cases to the Court of Appeal, where the Attorney considers that the sentencing in that case has been unduly lenient.
