Legal debate over inspectors findings and shop starts
In a structured hearing Mellon argued the informations were flawed due to delayed issuances after inspector visits to Poones. The case questioned start times and the legitimacy of Barton and Stewart, with McKeeven disputing the triviality of the offence. Fines were set for Gunn, and Stewart and Barton faced additional costs as the verdict awaits the Dubbo appeal decision.
