On rehearing the court concluded the prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the appellant lacked an intention to pay or did not honestly intend to pay later; the magistrate’s Statement of Findings did not adequately explain rejection of the appellant’s account and therefore the conviction was unsafe; appeal allowed, conviction quashed and sentence set aside.
