Both the State and Oscar Pistorius’ defence team will be entering the ring at the Pretoria High Court on Tuesday as round two begins – the battle for and against the leave to appeal of the “Blade Runner’s” sentence and conviction.

Anyone know how long this leave to appeal will take? Will we have an answer within a day or so or is this going to be one of those scenarios where we have days on end of arguments followed by a few days for Masipa to consider her decision?
 
Good luck to Gerrie Nel and his team in this first hurdle of the appeal process.

As promised, here's a reminder of the links to my various resources:

Key questions (KQ) - arising from phone data and beyond (supports WTA2)
Timeline (TIM) - 13/14 February 2013
Phone usage charts (PUC) - 3 tabs, one each for 5353, 4949 and 0020
WhatsApp messages (WAM) - from the trial and more
Witness locations (aerial) (WLA) - Silver Woods satellite view from May 2013
Witness locations (graphic) (WLG) - inc vacant plots and Guard Track locations
Witness testimony analysis (WTA) - based on evidence given
Witness testimony analysis 2 (WTA2) - possible Prosecution chronology based on Johnson's call time being fast (see also KQ)

Comments, corrections, additions and alternative views always welcome
 
What time is this supposed to take place? How many hours from now?
 
Greetings to everyone from the cloudy Blue Mountains of Sydney. We've just had 11 consecutive days of thunderstorms, sometimes 2 or even 3 times a day!!!

#OscarPistorius Not quite sure if we'll be starting at nine thirty or ten. Feeling here is that arguments should be done by lunch.

#OscarPistorius Legal teams are here. No family members or friends. Far more relaxed atmosphere than to the trial. Lots of open benches.

On that note a super safe and Merry Xmas to all you wonderful people.
 
Oscar Pistorius might spend Christmas at home, Chriselda Lewis reports

Speculation is that we'll be done by 1pm (South Africa time), including Masipa's decision ... and, if the State is successful, the bail application and decision
 
Nel is dealing with the sentence first. Masipa looks very stern.
 
I heard the du Toit whisper to Masipa "discretionary"!!!!!
 
Nel says "If the top end (of the sentence handed down) was 5 years for gross negligence, what then of (words to the effect) ordinary negligence?"
 
Nel said DT said there were no railings in jail and that was one of the reasons why he shouldn't go to jail. However he doesn't have them at home. OP didn't show remorse.
