Is there any evidence to support the second count of attempted sale or purchase of an office?
Saskatchewan, Canada
The following excerpt is from Rex v. Hogg, 1914 CanLII 302 (SK CA):
There is no evidence, in my opinion, to support the second count. The evidence does not disclose an attempted sale or purchase of an office, but rather, as stated above an attempt to improperly procure an appointment to an office. See remarks of Mr. Justice Yates in Rex v. Vaughan, 4 Burr. 2494, at p. 2501.
