Supreme Court JudgmentsElections
On the Allen-Dougherty charge (Par. 4 in the notice) upon the question of agency The Stroud Case[11] was referred to. [...] There is another charge, that Allen, a scrutineer far the respondent, induced Dougherty, a voter to take a false oath. [...] Allen, who is now accused of having corruptly induced Dougherty to take a false oath, also expressed his opinion to be that Dougherty could conscientiously take the oath, and this expression of opinion is the sole foundation for the charge made against Allen.

Bettinson ([16]); and Whimsell v. Giffard ([17]). [...] In McAulay v. Allen ([26]); and Samuel v. Coulter ([27]), the majority of the Court of Common Pleas at Toronto held themselves to be bound by Porter v. Flintoff so deciding and by Ruttan v. Beamish ([28]), as affirming it. [...] I remain of the opinion which was expressed by me in McAulay v. Allen and Samuel v. Coulter, that the point so assumed to have been decided by Porter v. Flintoff was not at all necessary

Yetts[8]; Newbigging v. Adam[9]; Hart v. Swaine[10]; Arkwright v. Newbold[11]; Allen v. Quebec Warehouse Co.[12] [...] Another rule which I consider altogether distinct from that just adverted to is propounded by the Privy Council in Allen v. Quebec Warehouse Co.[29], according to which a second court of appeal ought not to reverse the concurrent decision of two preceding courts on a question of fact. [...] Allen v. The Quebee Warehouse Co.29 does not therefore apply. I should have pointed out that the conduct of the parties immediately after the sale and up to the month of July, 1883, when the plaintiff for the first time advanced the claim which he afterwards made the subject of this litigation, was entirely consistent with

West Northumberland Election Case - (1885) 10 SCR 635 - 1885-03-16
Supreme Court JudgmentsElections
On the betting charge, referred to the following cases and authorities:—Cunningham on Elections[26]; Mattinson and Macaskie on Corrupt Practices at Elections[27]; Allen v. Hearn[28]; Leigh and Le Marchant[29]; Bushby's Election Law[30]; Clerk's Election Committees[31]; the Monmouth case[32]. [...] As Buller, J., says in Allen v. Ream[62]: The law leaves it to the voter to exercise his franchise or not, but it also requires him to be free till the last moment of giving or withholding his vote, which he cannot be if he has laid such a wager as the present. [...] The case of Allen v. Hearn and several cases before election committees were cases in which the bets were not by a candidate or an agent but by a voter or non-voter with a voter, and were wagers on the event of the election and not on the voting or non-voting of a particular voter, and the question invariably arose on a

As to the question of excessive damages, I am most reluctant to interfere with the finding of jurors, but in these cases I regret to say that I cannot differ from Chief Justice Allen in thinking the damages excessive in each case, nor from the rest of my brethren, that by reason thereof there should be a new trial with a [...] A ces deux objections, je citerai comme réponse concluante l'opinion de l'honorable juge en chef Allen dans la cause déjà citée de Phair et Venning.
