SOLICITOR REBUKED
BASELESS COURT ACTION. Hut'Uton, Dec. 7. “There is not the slightest justification for these proceedings, and 1 cannot express too strongly iny disapproval of them.’’’ commented Al. Justice Herdman,"in stromrly rebuking Mr W. Noble, solicitor of Te Kuiti, for instituting a Supreme Court action on behalf of a plaintiff, at Hamilton to-day. “An extraordinary feature Is that the defendant was about to exercise his power of sale when negotiations wore entered into with the mortgagee for settlement, the terms of which were signed by Noble,” proceeded His Honour. Acting for plaintiff, he withdrew the imputation of misrepresentation by the execution of a a cument in which complete contractions were made. How plaintiff lias now been put to the expense of a baseless Supreme Court action, alleging misrepresentation, is for his solicitor to explain.
1 ‘ Tho unfortunate man will have to pay costs of ligitation in which ho had no right to be involved,” sharply commented His Honour ” and his solictor must accept responsibility”
