which reads: “Our common law system consists in the applying to new combinations of circumstances those rules of law which we derive from legal principles and judicial precedents; and for the sake of attaining uniformity, consistency and certainty, we must apply those rules, where they are not plainly unreasonable or inconvenient, to all cases which arise; and we are not at liberty to reject them, and to abandon all analogy to them, in those to which they have not yet been judicially applied, because we think that the rules are not as convenient and reasonable as we ourselves could have devised.” (at p.546) 38. Based on the aforesaid analysis, it is certainly not unreasonable or inconvenient to apply the established legal principles to the facts of the present case. In doing so, I find that the Defendant’s conduct was one which outrages public decency. I am therefore satisfied beyond all reasonable doubt that the Prosecution has proved all the elements of the offence under Charges 1 and 3, and I convict the Defendant accordingly.
