  • The Queen v Tyson

    23 Nov 1867 LR 1 CCR 107, Crown Cases Reserved

    PERJURY — Materiality.
    KELLY, C.B. The real question is, whether on this indictment these two statements were material. We all agree that they were, as they tended to render more probable the truth of the first allegation. When it had been sworn by the witness that at the time of the robbery Sullivan was in Mint Street, it tended to render that statement infinitely more credible to add, “I, as deputy, know that he lodged there for nearly two years, and never was absent more than a night or two all that time.” Under the circumstances, without giving any opinion as to whether

    CRIME — False pretences — Remoteness.
    BOVILL, C.J. The question asked of us is, whether the verdict was right upon the evidence. This we understand to mean whether there was evidence to go to the jury; and so understanding it, we are all of opinion that there was. The objection urged upon us has been answered by my Brothers Willes and Blackburn in the course of the case; and it is obvious that there are many cases within the mischief of the statute where the thing obtained is not in existence when the false pretence is made. Thus a man, by false pretences, may induce a
