A PECULIAR CASE
AUCKLAND, This Day. At the Supreme Court to-day, Lena #Blazina, a married woman, was charged with #extortion at #Waipu. R. N. #Nitz, a gum-digger, stated that at a church bazaar he and the defendant’s husband tied in guessing the length of a piece of string. In a deciding trial, he won. The prize was a tea-set. The accused later wrote a letter making an allegation against Nitz’s character, and threatening him with exposure unless the tea-set was returned.
Mr. Justice Herdman, after hearing the evidence instructed the jury to bring in a verdict of guilty, and formally sentenced the accused to twelve months’ probation. He stated that the sentence would be cancelled if the Court of Appeal decided that no crime had been committed, the legal question being that the accused had extorted the tea-set, not for herself, but for the committee.
