- High Court
Despite deficiencies in the plaintiffs' evidence and delay in seeking legal aid, the Court narrowly concluded that the interests of justice required an adjournment to permit legal representation for a complex 10-day positive defence hearing that raises potential self-incrimination and factual complexity; adjournment granted to 17 May 2021 on conditions including prompt legal aid application and reservation of costs issues.
