[2009] EWCA Crim 139

A conviction for unauthorised use of a trademark was quashed as the recorder had been wrong to find that the defendant had possession of counterfeit goods that had been found in the loft of her home and in a van outside the home, and as a result to refuse a submission of no case to answer. Her husband had been charged with the same offence but there had been no evidence that the defendant had the requisite control over the goods.
