Edward James Goldsmith, 41, the partner of former Magic netball coach Noeline Taurua, has been found guilty of two Department of Conservation charges relating to work carried out at the couple's lakeside lodge.
Following a three-day hearing in the Rotorua District Court this week, Judge Christopher Harding today convicted Goldsmith of knowingly and without authority interfering with the natural features of, and erecting a deck within, the Lake Okareka Marginal Strip. He will be sentenced at a later date.
