In, the appeal case Boyd v. the., Onehunga Borough Council, dealing with the right of the former to keep wild animals in the borough, the Appeal Court unanimously held that clause 2 of the by-law was too wide, and was therefore ultra vires and invalid, being couched in much wider language than the reason for passing the by-law expressed in the recital. Costs were allowed tg the appellant in the Supreme Court, and also in the Court of Appeal as on the highest scale, and as from a distance. Further, a declaration was made that clause 2 of the by-law was invalid.
