Laane & Baltser v. Estonian S.S. Line - [1949] SCR 530 - 1949-02-28
Supreme Court JudgmentsInternational law
Upon appeal before Lord Justice Scott, Lord Justice Tucker and Lord Justice Cohen 4, the judgment of Mr. Justice Atkinson was upheld.

National Bank of Scotland 13, and that of Lord Justice Scott in A/S Tallinna [...] In the view of Scott L.J., at p. 111, the legislation, had it been proved, was to be regarded as penal and non-enforceable.
