by J.A. Coutts, Professor of Jurisprudence. University of Bristol

In the Gould case the Court of Appeal accepted the defendant's reasonable belief that he was free to remarry as a defence to a charge of bigamy. Professor Coutts asks: is this decision the blameless bigamist's charter? More than 100 talks have been broadcast in this series since it began in 1953, and a number have since been published. Each has been based on a recent case, usually one which has pointed to an unsettled corner of the law that still needs to be made clear or where a bad rule needs to be replaced by a better one. The cases however have not been concerned with lawyers' law; they have been chosen for their appeal to non-lawyers: doctors, tenants, parents, motorists. Tonight's talk does not of course suppose an audience of intending bigamists, but it does raise what Lord Reid has called 'the public scandal of convicting on a serious charge persons who are in no way blameworthy in what they did.'
