THE LORD CHIEF JUSTICE : On the 4th October last at Bristol Crown Court the Appellant George Eli Woodman, together with Terence George Woodman, were convicted of theft. George Eli Woodman was fined and sentenced to a term of imprisonment in default of payment. Terence George Woodman was sentenced to imprisonment to run concurrently with an existing term which he was serving.
Both appealed against their conviction, but Terence George Woodman has since abandoned his appeal, and this Court is only concerned with George Eli Woodman.
The facts of the case were these. On the 20th March of last year the Appellant and his son, and another man called Davey who was acquitted, took a van to some premises at Wick near Bristol and loaded on to the van 1 ton 6 cwt. of scrap metal, which they proceeded to drive away.
