Hearsay

Hearsay is a podcast about law and legal issues, for students and everyone else.

[Hearsay @hearsaycast]

@jeremy_gans Thanks for this. Is it used? On an admittedly crude search I couldn’t find any examples.

[Hearsay @hearsaycast]

I’ve never seen a charge of “incitement to commit conspiracy” before. It seems to have been abolished as a common law offence in the UK in 1977. Did it survive the codification of inchoate offences in Vic? An AustLII search returns zero Vic cases https://t.co/SiF6cPY7Hm

You should make it so accounts we don’t follow aren't in For You, since we didn’t ask for them

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Forgot to mention that accounts you follow directly will also be in For You, since you have explicitly asked for them

[Hearsay @hearsaycast]

No.

A similar thing happened when Gordon J was part of a 2014 Federal Court decision on bank fees, and was promoted to the High Court before the appeal. She did not sit in that 2016 hearing (which overturned her judgment).

[Paul Barry @TheRealPBarry]

Justice Jagot awarded a famous victory to ABC journalist Steve Cannane in the recent Chelmsford defamation case, that was subsequently overturned by full Federal Court. Could she get another bite at it in the High Court? That would be interesting!

[The Working Women's Centre SA @WWCSA2]

We need to criminalise wage theft, increase funding to the FWO and increase union access to workplaces.

The long and arduous court process can be done with the likes of our service in SA and Job Watch in Victoria but we can’t litigate our way out of this mess.

Power of the Minister to cancel a person’s visa on public health grounds https://t.co/7lgSWSIJDv

[Kieran Pender @KieranPender]

Griffiths J, in @EnviroCentreNT v Resources Minister, finds that the Minister's actions contrary to common law model litigant obligations contribute to a finding of unreasonableness, invalidating the contracts entered into by the Minister. A big win for @EDOLawyers.

[Andrew Leigh @ALeighMP]

Why has no person of colour ever served on the High Court? Perhaps it's because the current system favours chummy insiders over talented outsiders. https://t.co/3tYItQ4feE #auspol

[Supreme Court of Victoria (Australia) @SCVSupremeCourt]

The Supreme Court is adjusting operations in line with the easing of COVID-19 restrictions. Criminal jury trials have resumed as a priority and courtroom arrangements have returned to normal. Read more: https://t.co/heCepyLE12 #auslaw

[Luke Henriques-Gomes @lukehgomes]

This is awful:
A mother and daughter who imported Malaysian tea into Australia spent four months in jail after the substance was wrongly identified as an amphetamine - even after NSW Police became aware of problems with the drug test.

GORDON J: Mr Walker, any reply? Again, you are on mute, Mr Walker.

MR WALKER: I am so sorry, your Honours.

GORDON J: By the end of the day you will be trained.

MR WALKER: Or finished, yes, your Honour.
