Harris Company, Limited, of Christchurch, to sign a lease issued by Australian Technical Services and Patents, Limited, recognising the Australian firm's right to collect royalties on certain patents used in radio receivers.
There were five separate actions against the defendant, arid to four of | these the defendant objected and put | in summonses for a stay of proceedings on the ground that they were an abuse of the procedure of the court and were intended to embarrass the defendant in the preparation and conduct of his case.
