Easom [1971] 2 A11 ER 945
The Defendant was in the cinema and saw a woman's handbag on the floor. He looked through the bag but did not take anything from it. His conviction for stealing the bag was thrown out of court. This case was also thrown out of the Court of Appeal due to no evidence that he intended to steal the bag and/or its belongings.
