A 25-year old man has been convicted to more than ten years in jail over a fatal assault under an Australian state’s new one-punch laws created to address alcohol-fueled violence.

A Sydney court sentenced Hugh Garth, 25, to more than 10 years prison for fatally striking nurse Raynor Manalad outside a 21st birthday party in 2014, reported the ABC. Garth was found guilty of the crime in May.
