Timeline

1926

He graduated from Dalhousie University in 1926.

He was Desmond's lawyer.

1961

He later became a Justice of Supreme Court of Nova Scotia in 1961.

1977

He retired in 1977 and died the following year.

Bissett's decision to opt for a judicial review rather than appeal the original conviction proved disastrous.

Furthermore, Bissett chose to focus the case on the issue of tax evasion and not on the basis of racial discrimination.

When dismissing the case, Justice William Lorimer Hall said:

Had the matter reached the court by some other method than certiorari there might have been an opportunity to right the wrong done this unfortunate woman.

One wonders if the manager of the theatre who laid the complaint was so zealous because of a bona fide belief that there had been an attempt to defraud the province of Nova Scotia of the sum of one cent, or was it a surreptitious endeavour to enforce a Jim Crow rule by misuse of a public state.

Upon losing the case, Bissett refused to bill Desmond and his fees were donated back to William Pearly Oliver's Nova Scotia Association for the Advancement of Coloured People.

1978

Frederick William Bissett (1902- November, 1978) was a lawyer and later a Justice of the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia, Canada.
