Facts of the Case

Background

The appellant was charged with contravening section 113 of the Criminal Law Act and released on bail with a condition to reside at a "given address." The Magistrates Court revoked her bail, finding she breached this condition by not residing at 1206 Bote Township, Dete. The appellant appealed, arguing the "given address" was actually Dopote Village.
