1. On 1st September last Chan Chung-chiu was convicted by Judge Sanders, in the District Court, of handling stolen goods. Against that conviction he seeks leave to appeal and by his substituted grounds, amended in the course of the hearing, contends that the trial judge failed properly to consider "the doctrine of recent possession" or alternatively, if he did, that any such reliance was wrong in the context of the evidence adduced at the hearing.
