OBTAINING PROPERTY BY DECEPTION<\/strong><\/p>\n

DPP v Ray [1974] AC 370<\/h2>\n

The defendant had ordered a meal in a restaurant and had consumed it with an<\/p>\n

honest state of mind. He then discovered that he was unable to pay for the meal<\/p>\n

and remained silent as to his change in circumstances. The defendant waited<\/p>\n

until the dining area was clear of waiters before running out. The defendant was<\/p>\n

convicted under s16(2)(a) of the Theft Act 1968 (now replaced by the Theft Act<\/p>\n

1978).<\/p>\n

The House of Lords held that the defendant had exercised a deception by<\/p>\n

remaining seated in the restaurant having decided not to pay. His remaining in<\/p>\n

this position created the implied and continuing representation that he was an<\/p>\n

honest customer who intended to pay the bill, thus inducing the waiters to leave<\/p>\n

the dining area unattended, giving him the opportunity to run off without<\/p>\n

paying.<\/p>\n

R v Collis-Smith [1971] Crim LR 716<\/h3>\n

The defendant had put petrol into his car and then falsely told the attendant<\/p>\n

that his employer would be paying for the petrol. The defendant’s appeal against<\/p>\n

conviction under s15 was successful in the Court of Appeal on the basis that his<\/p>\n

deception did not arise until after the property in the petrol had passed to<\/p>\n

him. (Note: today, the appropriate charge in such a case would be an offence<\/p>\n

under s2 Theft Act 1978.)<\/p>\n

\n

R v Coady [1996] Crim LR 518<\/h3>\n

The Court of Appeal quashed the defendant’s conviction for obtaining petrol<\/p>\n

at a self-service station by the deception that he was authorised to charge the<\/p>\n

petrol to the account of his former employer, which he was no longer entitled to<\/p>\n

do. The fatal flaw in the prosecution case was that it was clear that the<\/p>\n

defendant had informed the cashier that the petrol should be charged to the<\/p>\n

account only after he had got the petrol.<\/p>\n

The court was sceptical about the wider representation that when the<\/p>\n

defendant drove onto the forecourt he represented an intention to pay which he<\/p>\n

did not in fact possess. This was alleged to be inconsistent with the<\/p>\n

indistinguishable case of Collis-Smith<\/i> (1971).<\/p>\n

\n

MPC v Charles [1977] AC 177<\/h3>\n

The defendant had drawn cheques on his account, supported by his cheque<\/p>\n

guarantee card, in order to buy gaming chips at a casino. The manager of the<\/p>\n

casino had given evidence that questions of creditworthiness did not arise where<\/p>\n

a valid cheque guarantee card was proffered.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, the House of Lords affirmed the defendant’s conviction under<\/p>\n

s16(2)(b) of obtaining a pecuniary advantage by deception. The House of Lords<\/p>\n

accepted that use of a cheque and a cheque card implied authority to do so, and<\/p>\n

that it was to be assumed that the casino would not have accepted the cheques as<\/p>\n

supported by the guarantee card, had the truth been known, ie that the defendant<\/p>\n

had exceeded his authorised limit.<\/p>\n

R v Lambie [1982] AC 449<\/h3>\n

The defendant used her own credit card knowing that authorisation had been<\/p>\n

withdrawn. She was convicted of obtaining a pecuniary advantage by deception<\/p>\n

from her bank under s16(2)(b).<\/p>\n

The conviction was upheld by the House of Lords on the basis that if the shop<\/p>\n

assistant had known the truth she would not have accepted the credit card in<\/p>\n

payment, hence the use of the card was an operative deception. The defendant<\/p>\n

could of course, call the retailer to give evidence that she was quite happy to<\/p>\n

accept the credit card in full knowledge of the defendant’s lack of authority,<\/p>\n

but the retailer is unlikely to want to run the risk of becoming an accomplice<\/p>\n

to the defendant’s fraud on the credit card company.<\/p>\n

R v Goodwin [1996] Crim LR 262<\/h3>\n

The Court of Appeal held that the defendant had rightly been convicted of<\/p>\n

going equipped for theft (contrary to s25 Theft Act 1968) when the evidence<\/p>\n

showed that he had used Kenyan 5 shilling coins (coins of the same size, shape<\/p>\n

and weight as 50p coins but of about half the value) to play gaming machines in<\/p>\n

an amusement arcade. The defendant knew full well that he was trying to obtain<\/p>\n

the prize coins in a way which he knew would not have the machine owner’s<\/p>\n

consent.<\/p>\n

R v Ghosh [1982] QB 1053<\/h3>\n

The defendant was a consultant at a hospital. He falsely claimed fees in<\/p>\n

respect of an operation that he had not carried out. He claimed that he thought<\/p>\n

he was not dishonest by his standards because the same amount of money was<\/p>\n

legitimately payable to him for consultation fees. The defendant’s conviction<\/p>\n

under s15 was affirmed by the Court of Appeal.<\/p>\n

(See Handout on Theft.) On the basis of the court’s decision, the jury,<\/p>\n

applying their own standards, must judge the defendant’s actions and beliefs and<\/p>\n

decide whether he was honest or dishonest. If the jury find that according to<\/p>\n

their standards he was dishonest, they must then establish whether the defendant<\/p>\n

knew that ordinary people would regard such conduct as dishonest.<\/p>\n

OBTAINING A PECUNIARY ADVANTAGE BY DECEPTION<\/h2>\n

R v Clarke [1996] Crim LR 824<\/h3>\n

The defendant, a private investigator, allegedly told V (a group of people<\/p>\n

who had been defrauded) that he was a former fraud squad officer and a court<\/p>\n

bailiff. In consequence, he was engaged to trace funds belonging to them.<\/p>\n

Initially, D maintained not only that he did not make the representations but<\/p>\n

also that he was not dishonest since he believed he could do the work, intended<\/p>\n

to do so, and eventually did so. He changed his plea to guilty after the judge<\/p>\n

indicated that he considered the offence committed if D made the<\/p>\n

representations, they were false and that V engaged him as a result of those<\/p>\n

representations.<\/p>\n

The Court of Appeal allowed the appeal and quashed the conviction. The<\/p>\n

judge’s indication inevitable implied that it was necessarily dishonest to tell<\/p>\n

lies to obtain employment, no matter what D’s explanation for the lies or more<\/p>\n

general explanation for his conduct. This was unduly restrictive and the jury<\/p>\n

should have been given the opportunity to consider the issues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
