You may have heard of the outcome of the Mt. John 'trials' in Timaru last week. I was fined $60 for obscene language (including solicitor's fee and costs), and placed on 1 year's probation for inciting disorder. Tony Mansfield was fined a total of $150 for 'inciting obscene language' and two charges of 'obscene language' (again including solicitor's fee and costs.) When lawyer's fees for the defence are included, we'll have to raise about $350 between us - I'd be grateful if you could publish an appeal for money. I understand that Gavin Thompson and Co. have started an appeal. All donations or letters of abuse should be sent to either Tony or myself at the above address.
