"An SAS soldier who was ordered to spend 18 months in a military jail for firearms offences could be freed on Thursday when his lawyers contest the sentence in a hearing at the court of appeal.
They will argue the court martial was too harsh on Sergeant Danny Nightingale, 37, and that expert medical evidence showed he could have been unaware that he had 338 rounds of ammunition and a pistol among his possessions.
Lord Judge, the lord chief justice, Britain's most senior judge, is expected to give a ruling following a campaign led by the soldier's wife, Sally."
