J U D G M E N T
________________
1. On 10th December last year, the Appellant, a youth of 18 years of age, was convicted after trial by Ms Susan D'Almada Remedios sitting in the Magistrate's Court at Tuen Mun on one charge of possession of dangerous drugs. On 19th January this year, he was sentenced to be detained in the Training Centre.
2. He now appeals against his conviction. He has lodged a Notice of Appeal against Conviction in the standard form but has written no ground of appeal thereon.
3. The Magistrate has prepared a detailed and careful Statement of Findings and I propose to say no more than that I am fully satisfied with the propriety of the conviction.
4. The appeal is dismissed.
