D. F. NELSON’S DEPORTATION
ACTION AGAINST FORMER ADMINISTRATOR. Apia, January 10. An ex parte application was heard to-day in the high court of Western Samoa on behalf of Olaf Frederick Nelson, formerly legislative councillor of Samoa, for leave to serve a summons and statement of claim out of Samoa and in New Zealand upon Brigadier-General Richardson, former Administrator. The cause of action is that Nelson’s deportation was allegedly ultra vires and invalid. Judge McCarthy refused the order, on the ground of concurrent jurisdiction with New Zealand and as both parties were there, the bringing of the case in Samoa involved avoidable expense.
