The Western Law Reporter Canada And Index Digest Vol 5

Excerpt from The Western Law Reporter (Canada) And Index-Digest, Vol. 5: January May, 1907 I am of Opinion that this conviction is bad on both these grounds and must be quashed. No application has been made to amend in this case, and if it had been I doubt whether I could have amended. I am inclined to the opinion that where I am called upon to exercise a discretion of the char acter of fixing the term of imprisonment I am unable to amend. I am also inclined to the opinion, in view of its word ing, that the provision in the clause 3 in question providing for imprisonment is not merely a means of enforcing the penalty, but provides an alternative punishment in case the penalty is not paid. I express no decided opinion on that question however. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
