R v Evans In principle there is no objection to a court making a community service order under s 14(1)a of the
Powers of Criminal Courts Act 1973 which is expressed to be consecutive to a community service order
already imposed on the same offender by another court. When, therefore, the circumstances make it
desirable, the second court may impose a further community service order consecutive to the first order
provided that the total amount of hours directed to be served does not in aggregate exceed the limit of
240 hours prescribed by s 14(1) (see p 229 e to j, post).
