SERVICE OF A NOTICE.
IMPORTANT LEGAL, POINT. Gisborne, January 23. A rather important legal point concerning the service of a notice under the Shearers’ and Agricultural Labourers' Accommodation Act, was decided by Mr W. A. Barton, S.M., at the Magistrate's Court to-day. Frederick J. Lysuer, sheep-farmer, was charged with failing to provide adequate accommodation for shearers. The Inspector of Awards, who prosecuted, said he forwarded the notice in a registered letter. The defence was that the letter was not received, and the Act required the notice to be served either on the employer personally, or leaving the same at his usual or last-known place of residence. The magistrate held that the notice had not been served in accordance with the Act, and dismissed the information.
