COURT OF APPEAL.
LYSNAR v. TE AIAIRIO AND
ANOTti^
[Pku I*ukss Association.l WELLINGTON, July 13
Argument in tlie case Lysnar v. Ahenata Te Ala ire and another continued in the Court of Appeal to-day. Mr. Hislop, on behalf of respondents, contended that the foundation of tho claim was that applicant had wrongfully represented himself as solicitor for respondents, and had thereby induced the Court to dismiss a motion. That was shown clearly by the minutes of the Atolidation Court, upon which respondents relied. It was clear from the minutes that the anuellant appeared for tlie purpose of blocking a motion, 'whether by getting it dismissed or not did not matter. Appellant had no lien in law, and ought .as solicitor to have known that therefore in claimin'’' a lien, he was guilty of a wrongful act. In consequence oi that wrong! ul act the Court wrongfully dismissed the motion, thereby causing damage to respondents. Therefore an injunction and damages were rigiuiy granted. The argument, in the case was concluded at 3.30 this afternoon, and the Court reserved judgment.
