[ Before W. G. RIDDELL, Stipendiary Magistrate, Welling- ton.— 25th February, 1911.] BLACK V. GLYNN. Judgment. THIS is an application by the defendant for a rehearing of the iuformation under which he uas convicted for an assault on the informant on the 3rd of February last. The applica- tion is mado under section 120 of the Jus ices of the Peace Act, 1908, which states that any Justice before whom any information or complaint has been heard may in his dis- cretion grant a rehearing of such information or complaint upon such terms as to him seems fit. The application is opposed by the informant on the grounds : - ( 1.) That as defendant lias paid the fine imposed by the Court the matter is res judicata. . ( 2.) That defendant has no statutory or other right to make such an application, as the oflence for which he was convicted is an indictable one, and section 120 does not apply to informations deal- ing with indictable offences triable summarily. The first objection is in. my opinion disposed by the deci- sion in Rex v. Hughes ( 12 G. L. R., 19), where it was held by the Court of Appeal that a person who had served a sentence was not absolutely disqualified from obtaining a new trial, but the application must be made promptly or without unreasonable delay. The second objection is of more impoit- ance ; but, without discussing the distinction between ordin- ary offences within a Justice's jurisdiction and indictable offences triable summarily, it may be noted that section 120 does not refer to any particular kind of offence, but merely confers upon Justices a discretionary power to rehear infor- mations which have already been dealt with by them at some earlier date. I do not think that the position of the section in that part of the Act which deals with the ordinary juris- diction of Justices is conclusive that it refers only to infor- mations concerning offences not indictable. The main object of the Act is to set out the procedure applicable to cases coming within the jurisdiction of Justices, and by sec- tion 4 of the Acts Interpretation Amendment Act, 1908, the division of any Act into parts, and the headings of such parts shall be deemed for the purpose of reference to be part of the Act, but the headings shall not affect the interpreta- tion of the Act. Further, the word " information " is de- fined by the Acts Interpretation Amendment Act as an iuformation made in accordance with the Justices of the Peaco Act, 1908, in respect of an offence punithable on summary conviotion ; and summary conviction is defined as meaning a conviction by a Magistrate or one or more Justices in accordance with the Justices of the Peace Act. I think, then, that the information under which defendant was charged with assault oomes directly within the defini- tions juat referred to, and so is covered by section 120 irre- spective of the fact that the offence is an indictable one triable summarily. I am also unable to see how the pro- cedure or jurisdiction of the higher Court with regard to indictable offences can be affected by holding that Justices have jurisdiction to hear such an application, for subsec- tion ( 5), section 7, of the Crimes Act, 1908, expressly says that nothing in that Act shall be construed to annul or limit any provisions made by any other Act for the trial and punishment of indictable offences in a summary way. Sec- tion 178 of the Justices of the Peace Act, 1908, confers the necessary jurisdiction on Justices to deal with common assaults in a summary manner, and in this case the usual summary procedure was followed. A similar application was considered in 1898 by Mr. Hutchison, Stipendiary Magistrate, iu the case of Rex v. Sjoberg ( 2 Magistrates' Courts Re- ports, p. 27), when he decided that Justices had no jurisdic- tion to griut a rehearing of an information containing a charge of an indictable offence ; and some considerable time ago 1 dismissed an application for rehearing in the oase of Lane v. Carey, partly on the ground that the fresh evidence to be adduced was corroborated only, and partly because I I was not prepared to disagree with Mr. Hutchison's decision. The present application has, however, been argued more fully than that in Lane v. Carey, and after further considera tion I am satisfied that I should not follow the decision in Rex v. Sjoberg. I think defendant has a right to make his application. Mr. O'Leary, for plaintiff. Mr. Gray, for defendant. EXTRACTS FROM NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. ( From Gazette, 1911, pages 893 and 895.)
