The magistrate provided sufficient procedural and limited substantive assistance to an unrepresented appellant, the prosecution evidence (security officer's observation and the presence of the unpaid item in the appellant's bag) was sufficient to prove theft beyond reasonable doubt, and absent a demonstrated relevance of illness to culpability there was no duty to adjourn for medical evidence; conviction stands.
