Title Supreme Court: People vs. Jolliffe

Case: G.R. No. L-9553

Decision Date: May 13, 1959

A Canadian national, William Jolliffe, was convicted for attempting to export gold bullion from Manila without a license, violating Central Bank Circular No. 21. His actions, including concealing gold and attempting to bribe officials, demonstrated intent. The court upheld the circular's validity and forfeited the gold but reversed the traveler's check forfeiture due to lack of intent.
