AUCKLAND, Sept. 13. Three charges of selling properties when not holding a land agent’s licence were admitted by Edwin Sayes iu the Magistrate’s Court to-day. Senior-Sergeant Joyce said that on March 31 the defendant started a business, known as Reliance Business Sales, for which lie- did not require a licence. Later he sold two houses and ' another property, which required him to have a land agent’s licence. Counsel for the defendant said it was only dilatoriness on the defendant’s part that he did not apply for a licence. When the matter was brought under his notice he had applied and immediately been granted one. The Magistrate said the important point was that the defendant had accepted deposits without being covered by the bond which a licence , holder would have provided On one charge Sayes was fined £2O. Two other charges were withdrawn.
