The magistrate erred in law in holding there was no case to answer because the respondent's admissions were capable of supporting a reasonable inference that the payments were accepted as an inducement to forbear disciplinary action under s.9(1)(a); accordingly the magistrate should have left the matter to be decided at trial and, where warranted by the evidence, amend the particulars under s.27 and proceed — appeal allowed and matter remitted for further proceedings.
