Because the newly admitted facts showed the bonnet’s value at the time of receiving was below the $1,000 threshold, the appellant could not in law have been convicted of receiving stolen property over $1,000; accordingly the conviction was quashed and substituted under s 234 for the appropriately valued offence.
