title: Anderton v Ryan
text: Anderton v Ryan [1985] is a House of Lords case in English criminal law, on whether an act which would amount to an offence but which by virtue of a misunderstanding of the goods involved was impossible breaks section 1 of the Criminal Attempts Act 1981; the court established against a similar defendant the next year that the reverse should hold true in future.
