to a series of offences founded on the same facts and of the same character, and in such circumstances it is usual to impose concurrent sentences. As Lord Widgery C.J. has pointed out:}{\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid4860643  }{
\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid10646031\charrsid10491559 "The reason for that is because if a man is charged with several seriou
s offences arising out of the same situation and consecutive sentences are imposed, the total very often proves to be much too great for the incident in question." (}{\fs24\ul\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid10646031\charrsid10491559 R. v. Kastercum

different character, entirely different considerations apply. In the present case, however, the usual practice should have been followed as all the offences were committed by me
ans of the same modus operandi and were of an identical nature; and the effect of departing from it has, in my view, resulted in a total term of imprisonment that is too severe.

, and ensuring that the money was paid into the bank and credited to the right account. By a carefully planned manipulation of receipt books, banking books and ledgers, the appellant fraudulently misappropriated various sums received by him on behalf of t
he firm, and instead of passing the money into the possession of the firm he applied it to his own use.}{\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid10491559
