THE key issue for determination by the Supreme Court in Ivey v Genting Casinos (UK) Ltd. [2017] UKSC 67, [2017] 3 W.L.R. 1212 was whether the crime of cheating at gambling, contrary to s. 42 of the Gambling Act 2005, requires proof of dishonesty. Even though the Court unanimously held that it did not, the Court went on to consider the appropriate test of dishonesty in both criminal and civil law and, in doing so, adopted a unified test which is essentially objective.
