@AequoEtBono the deed settled proposed litigation to which Reynolds would have been a party. it may be common practice for companies not to include potentially liable employees in such negotiations, for good reason, but I don't think they have "no business being there" as a general principle

@jeremy_gans @BabbyUnit isn't this a more likely explanation than anything particular to the NSW definition of murder – no reasonable prospect of excluding excessive self-defence? https://t.co/SrnMdYVvHE

[Jeremy Gans @jeremy_gans]

(If the charge had been murder, then the case would have mostly turned on defences, specifically self-defence or the reasonable exercise of a policing power. That is, this trial would have been like the Rolfe trial, but without the NT’s defence for good faith policing.)

@art_src @DAJKeffa @andrewlilley_au that retroactive law hasn’t passed yet and couldn’t have been predicted at the time that you had to make the investment decision (nor could the possibility of a 20% write off, which also favours non-repayment obviously)

@art_src @DAJKeffa @andrewlilley_au voluntary repayment before 1 June 2023 yielded a tax-free return of 7.1%

@fchralph harsh words! as a non-Victorian watching a contested committal, I thought it seemed anachronistic and wasteful, but evidence from the abolition of committals in WA and NSW seems equivocal; the system lumbers on with no detectable changes to KPIs

@jeremy_gans This is annoying – not only is it hard to work out that Questions of Law Reserved (Nos 1 and 2 of 2023) are being appealed sub nom "CD", but presumably since 23 August, it has been clear that the SLA has merit but that information has been paywalled. Liberate the DLS now!

@HighCourtTrivia ‘Because at that time I did not really know much about his political life and activities I must confess that I thought [Neville Wran] was a certainty for appointment as a judge. Later, he would say that he would only consider a judicial appointment if he had “a terminal illness”’

@MatriXBT @PaulSkallas @veH0rny that's interesting, is it a french thing or does it apply to other civil law countries? i tried to google for data on lawyers per capita by country but the results were useless

@HighCourtTrivia to be contrasted with “the rather homely but important concept of a snippet” 👌

@JarrydBartle the court's order refers to s 109, which is the Class 1 provision – consistent with reporting of a "removal" rather than "blocking" notice https://t.co/wVxdhU4jDy

@resipsaloquiter is it Mammoth Investments Pty Ltd v Donaldson [2022] WASCA 144? it was widely discussed, but applies the pre-LPUL legislation https://t.co/Ywxyo77FYe

@jeremy_gans it's a "broad discretion" to which almost anything can be relevant, certainly each party's capacity to pay, and whether the case was instituted in the most appropriate forum. there's law about "public interest costs orders" for test cases https://t.co/DFC8Wjh4tS

@resipsaloquiter @StephenWarne they wouldn’t have, because s 102 of the (now repealed) Act applied only to ILPs, and the related but less harsh s 71 applied only to lawyers who “ establish an office” in WA

@Jack_Callaghan_ @MattBruenig what kind of court records have you been feeding in? i’ve been trying to do this with judgments but they’re usually too large to fit in context, so i then need a separate system like LlamaIndex to break them up, which doesn’t necessarily work. it’s far from trivial
