R v Ghosh (1982)
● Charged the NHS for a surgery he did not do
● This case came up with two questions:

1.Would the ordinary, honest person consider it dishonest?-Objective part of the test

2.Did D consider it to be dishonest?-Subjective

● The Jury have to ask themselves these questions

Ivey v Genting Casinos (2017)- (Poker player, didn't consider edge-sorting cheating)
● This case has cast doubt on the second part of test
● D was a poker player and he won 7.1 million in a casino in 2012
● The casino claimed he was not entitled the money as he cheated as he used a technique called ‘edge-sorting’
● Ivey stated he did not consider ‘edge-sorting’ to be cheating- the subjective limb of Ghosh could not be fulfilled
● The second question of the ghosh test was applied and the ordinary man would consider this cheating
