Read the full judgment text of CACC 000323/1983 on BabelCite. This Court of Appeal judgment.
1. This is an appeal against sentence following a conviction for evading a liability by deception in respect of a cheque of $20,000 which was not met on presentation. It is quite clear however that this cheque for $20,000 did form part of a larger transaction between the appellant and the complainant, Mr. KAM Yu-ming, involving some $157,000. With respect to the magistrate I think that fact has somewhat clouded his view of the appropriate sentence in the case.
