MAY. GO TO LAW
Latest Moves in Ngingo Ngingo Case ACTION BY OWNER By Telegraph—Press Association. Christchurch, December 14. Notice has been served on the Auckland Trotting Club by Mr. R. M. Morten, owner of Ngingo Ngingo, which is intended to have the effect of an injunction restraining the club from paying over the stakes in the Labour Day Handicap, after which Ngingo Ngingo, after winning the race, was disqualified by the club. The Trotting Board reversed the club’s decision, and the case went to appeal judges, who in turn reversed the board’s decision, sustaining the finding of the club. The case can now go to the Trotting Conference, and may even go to the law courts.
It is understood one of the grounds of Mr. Morten’s action is that appeal judges heard fresh evidence without calling the owner.
