    High Court

    The Registrar lawfully considered the written fee agreement but was entitled to place it to one side after assessing all circumstances; there was an evidential basis for concluding $3000 was a fair and reasonable fee for the appeal work and the Registrar's decision was not plainly wrong, so the High Court confirms the Registrar's decision and grants an extension of time to permit review proceedings to be filed.
