translate English to French: In our opinion the conviction of Mr. Irving became “final” when the ordinary period during which leave of appeal was to be sought expired, and, due to the denial of legal aid, Mr. Irving was not able apply for leave of appeal.
À notre avis la condamnation de M. Irving est devenue «définitive» quand la durée ordinaire pendant laquelle il devait attendre l'autorisation de former recours a expiré et, comme l'aide juridictionnelle lui a été refusée, M. Irving n'a pas pu demander cette autorisation.
