The magistrate's failure to make the required signed findings of fact under s114(b) in the context of conflicting evidence made the conviction unsafe; the appellate court therefore allowed the appeal and, exercising its discretion to avoid remittal given the minor nature of the offences, delay and cost, quashed the conviction and ordered refund of any fine.
