DISPUTE OVER LAND
APPEAL IN GISBORNE CASE
An appeal on the facts and the law against the whole of a Supreme Court judgment delivered by Mr. Justice Blair in Gisborne last March was begun in the Court of Appeal today before the Chief Justice (Sir Michael Myers), Mr. Justice Kennedy, and Mr. Justice Johnston.
The appellant was Frederick Thomas Hall, a painter, of Gisborne, for whom Mr. W. D. Lysnar appeared, and the respondent was the Guardian Trust and Executors Company, of New Zealand, Ltd., represented by Mr. P. B. Cooke, and Mr. J. G. Nolan.
In the Supreme Court at Gisborne the company sought and obtained a declaration that lands led by Hall in his name were held by him in trust for the estate of \*\ father, and the present case is an appeal by Hall against the making of the declaration by Mr. Justice Blair.
Legal argument is proceeding.
