Talk:R v Ghosh

The problem with a Ghosh instruction to a jury from a judge, could imply to the jury that the Judge was giving them the option to abandon the normal test for dishonesty.

The Ghosh test is the normal test for dishonesty in English law!Tattooed Librarian (talk) 08:21, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

Dr?

The article says "Dr Ghosh was a surgeon". Aren't surgeons traditionally called Mr in England? Wheeltapper (talk) 19:14, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

Ivey v Genting [2017] UKSC 67

Ghosh has been overruled by the UK Supreme Court in Ivey v Genting. This has been partially reflected in the page but one editor has erroneously added a passage that it does not apply to criminal cases, on account of it being a civil case. ["Limb 2 of the 'Ghosh test' was not overruled by the Supreme Court in the case of Ivey v Genting Casinos (UK) Ltd t/a Crockfords [2017] UKSC 67 because it is a civil case."] This isn't correct. Though Ivey is civil (a cheating gambler suing the casino) the Supreme Court made it clear it applies to criminal cases as well. Ivey states that the second limb, namely subjective dishonesty (the person's own view of his conduct) no longer applied. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.62.50.37 (talk) 09:47, 6 March 2018 (UTC)
