HIGH COURT OF AUSTRALIA

James Walter Rae Appellant; and Charles Simmons Respondent.

H C of A

On appeal from the Supreme Court of New South Wales.

24 August 1910

Griffith C.J., Barton, Isaacs and Higgins JJ.

Mocatta, for the appellant.

Griffith C.J.

The only question submitted to the Supreme Court was whether sec. 49 of the Pastures Protection Act 1902 conflicted with sec. 75 of the Local Government Act 1906. They held that it did not. This decision is manifestly right. Leave to appeal must therefore be refused.

Barton, Isaacs, and Higgins JJ.

concurred.

Application refused.

Solicitor, A. W. Simpson, Armidale, by Sly & Russell.
