Regina (Griffin) v Richmond Magistrates Court
Queen’s Bench Divisional Court
“A defendant charged with failing to deliver up books and papers in the course of the winding-up of a company and who raised the statutory defence of no intent to defraud bore a legal burden rather than an evidential one; that burden was not incompatible with the right to a fair trial.”
