Parker v British Airways Board [1982] 1 All ER 834
Answer
FACTS: The defendant was an airline passenger who found a gold bracelet in a British Airways executive lounge. The court considered whether British Airways had possession or control of the bracelet. HELD: The court decided that the company did not, but stated that if it had shown an intention to exercise control over the building and things in it, the company could have secured possession of the bracelet before the defendant found it. The court held that British Airways could have demonstrated this intention either expressly, for example by putting up a notice, or impliedly. However, in this case it had shown no such intention. When the original owner did not come forward to claim the bracelet it could be kept by the passenger.
