Juicy cases where appeal judge has slammed primary judge/magistrate/member
Brought over from another group:
Looking for any good appeals where an appeal judge has slammed the findings of a primary judge/magistrate/presiding member.
A real eye opener is a SAT matter Jetpoint Nominees Pty Ltd vs Lee [2021] where the appeal judge absolutely tears strips off the behaviour of original presiding member (Delaney Quinlan) and overturns everything she did. The rants comparing one party to Alan Bond was particularly entertaining.
She conveniently left shortly after, notably the annual report stated that she left to "seek other opportunities." XD
Anyone got any more?
