Key legal question
Whether the invoice used to fix insurance value constituted forgery in the titles
Extracted holding
The invoice was a materially false document, not a mere written lie; the conviction for this item was set aside.
Extracted reasoning
The invoice invoked the authority of A. SA, did not emanate from that company, and was used to prove the existence and price of the goods. This gave it title quality and made it false material forgery, but one count involving a separate receipt-like document lacked the required objective guarantee of veracity.
