The Court upheld the conviction: the prosecution proved all elements of s.471/465 — appellant used a forged receipt and had reason to believe it was forged; the general date 'September 2016' was sufficient given documentary and witness evidence and did not prejudice defence; implicit consent by the DPP through conduct of a Deputy DPP cured any absence of written sanction for the alternative charge; trial judges properly assessed credibility and their factual findings would not be disturbed absent compelling reasons.
