- No Fault Liability
- Callow v Tillstone (1990)
- The vet assured him that it was okay eat, so he put it up for sale
- However it was unfit for consumption, and the butcher was convicted for exposing unsound meat for sale
- Because it was a strict liability offence the butcher was guilty, but the butcher was not at fault in any way
- A defendant can be convicted if his voluntary act accidentally caused a prohibited consequence
- Even if the defendant is completley blameless
- Callow v Tillstone (1990)
