Commonwealth Offences

You may find yourself subject to a criminal charge under Commonwealth legislation. The Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions also prosecute offences on behalf of other Commonwealth Departments.

These matters are generally heard and determined by State and Territory Courts

The Sentencing Scheme in relation to Commonwealth Offences is generally different to the State Sentencing Scheme.

The Courts have the following options when imposing a Sentence for an offence under Commonwealth law:

Dismiss the Charge;

Bond without conviction;

Bond with conviction;

Fine with conviction;

State and Territory Community Correction Order/similar with conviction

Imprisonment with conviction

What am I most likely going to be sentenced with?

This depends on several factors. Firstly, the nature of the allegation. Secondly, whether you have been to court previously. Finally, if you have any criminal history. These factors will be considered by the Court in their sentencing.

Will I get a Conviction or a Non-Conviction?

The Court will look at the seriousness of the offending, whether or not it is going to affect you in the workplace or with social standing and whether you have any prior criminal history. These factors will be considered by the Court in the sentencing.

Question 3

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
