STRUCK OFF THE ROLL
A GISBORNE SOLICITOR. APPEAL COURT’S DECISION. Wellington, July 11. The Appeal Court to-day considered the case of the Law Society v. John Noden Bullard, of GSsborne, barrister and solicitor, an application to strike defendant off the roll. It was stated that there was a shortage in his trust account on March 31, 1926, of £6764, and on January 3rd, 1927, of £1756. Bullard filed an affidavit in which he did not oppose the application but stated his declared partner, E. H. Mann, had received large sums for which no proper security was given. It was stated that the defendant had pand off over £4OOO of the firm’s debts, but could do no more. The Chief Justice, in giving the judgment of the Court, said there was no other way open to the Court but to strike Bullard off the roll; but if, in future, the defendant showed by his conduct that he might seek re-admission, extenuating circumstances which had been pointed out would no doubt be taken into consideration.
