LICENSE QUASHED.
COMMITTEE HAS NO JURISDICTION. By Telegraph—Press Association. AUCKLAND, April 10. Mr Justice Herdman to-day delivered his decision that the Marsden Licensing Committee had no jurisdiction to issue a publican’s license for the Kamo Springs Hotel. He declared that the license was not renewed in 1917, and when granted in June, 1929, it had been dead for twelve years. Dealing with the argument that the law permits of the resurrection of a license, the Judge said proceedings might be taken at the first annual meeting after forfeiture, or nonrenewal, but in this case that time had long since expired. He therefore granted the application made by two electors of Marsden for a writ of certiorari ,to quash the Committee’s certificate.
