RETRACTABLE BALLPOINT PEN
Injunction Against Debt Execution Sought
A motion for an injunction to restrain the defendant from levying execution in respect of a judgment in an action involving a debt of $8,300, delivered in November 1952, was brought before Mr Justice J. R. Gregg, Puisne Judge, at the Supreme Court this morning.
The plaintiff in the present case maintains that in a meeting some time in March 1953, nego- tiations took place between himself and the defendant fr the sale by him of a ballroom which he owned, d. that it was agreed that the debt owed to the defendant be deducted from the pur- chase price of the ballroom.
