Abstract
Comments on R. v Magson (Emma-Jayne) (CA) on whether a woman's conviction for murdering her partner was unsafe on the basis that the judge erred in failing to give a jury direction on the "householder defence". Details the relevance of whether she genuinely believed her partner to be a trespasser.
