Peek ... Fraudulent misrepresentation was defined by Lord Herschell in Derry v Peek (1889) as a false statement that is "made (i) knowingly, or (ii) without belief in its truth, or (iii) recklessly, careless as to whether it be true or false." Therefore, if someone makes a statement which they honestly believe is true, then it cannot be fraudulent. See: Derry v Peek (1889) 14 App Cas 337. I though this was Derry v. Peek …

One case sticks in my mind: Derry v Peek - the defendant being a man who got very drunk, stole a red bike on his way home, woke up sober with said bike (nothing sexual, mind) got worried and tried to post it back whence he stole it. It had a particular resonance with me because the weekend before we studied the case I got very drunk, stole a red bike on the way home, and woke up with said red bike in my back garden. We've all done it. I fretted for a while, got EXTREMELY paranoid when reading about Derry v Peek, but instead of posting a bike anywhere, I gave the bike to a friend who then chopped it up with an axe and set it down to rust at the end of his garden. True or false? Well, that's a matter for the courts to decide..... Congrats on finishing the exams, Damo. Ahhhh the heady days of Criminal Law.

On consensual S&M (complete with old grey judges discussing different, um, methods) and the law. Gulp. Hope you get good results from these exams anyway ;) First case I did in criminal law (yikes, seven years ago) was R v Brown.
