JUDGE AND JURY
SUPREME COURT TRIALS
"Where the facts are such that onlyone inference can possibly be drawn from them, no doubt a .Judge is entitled to draw that inference in deciding the question whether there is evidence fit to go to a jury," stated Mr. Justice Ostler in delivering a judgment of the Court of Appeal to-Say. "But where the facts are capable of having more than one inference drawn from them it is exclusively the province of the jury to determine which inference ought to be drawn."
