Pl.A COUNTY court judge was set the task in Nottingham, last week, of deciding what should be done with a coach whose ownership had been in dispute. The vehicle was seized by officers of the Sheriff of Lincolnshire after Gandy, Ltd., of Liverpool, had successfully claimed £153 12s. id. from its operators, Kinivea Garages, Ltd., Broughton, Lines, who traded as Riverside Luxury Tours. Costs of £9 10s. were also awarded against Kinivea Garages.
Subsequently, however, HauIpon, Ltd., trading from the same address in Broughton, appealed against this action on the ground that they were the real owners of the coach. Their appeal failed by default, and at last week's hearing, Judge A. J. Flint decided that the vehicle should be disposed of to meet the original claim, plus court costs.
He was told by Mr. B. Appleby, for Gandy's, that the man behind the trouble was William Nainby IVranby, who, although he was an undischarged bankrupt, had formed eight companies through two stooges." lie had recently appeared before the magistrates at Brigs, Lines, where he had been described as " completely dishonest, consistently evading the law and responsibility."
To cloak his activities and put them on a legal basis, added Mr. Appleby, he had described himself as manager or traffic manager of the concerns.
