Farmers Relief Act Stay Binds Mortgage Authority In Equity Court
Justice Street rules under the Farmers Relief Act a stay of sale prevents disposal of property until mortgage is settled and no sale can occur without Farmers Relief Board approval. The case involves Younghusband Ltd versus Farmers and Graziers Cooperative Grain Insurance and Agency Co Ltd and supervisor John Campbell over a 1930 mortgage on stock and wool. The injunction halts receipt of sale proceeds and blocks further payments related to surplus stock. Also noted: Tamworth shelter shed fire, tobacco prices at market, a Tamworth resident fined for stray vows, and a Canberra censure for bowling green attire.
