Bar ExamBailey v Commissioner of Taxation - ANS-Part 15 Particulars -
Purpose is to confine issues, refine pleadings and avoid surprise.
General Steel Industries Inc v Comm. for Railways - ANS-UCPR 13.4 - no cause of
action
"so obviously untenable that it could not possibly succeed"
R v Kneebone - ANS-Duty of the Crown to call all witness available who may be able to
assist the court
SH v R - ANS-Competency - s 13
A witness incompetent to give sworn evidence may be competent to give unsworn
evidence if 13(5) is satisfied. If so, the witness is so competent (no discretion)
Browne v Dunn - ANS-It is necessary to put to a witness in cross examination the
nature of the case to be relied on in contradiction of their evidence, particularly if it relies
on inferences from other evidence.
NAB v Rassu - ANS-A tendered document is not authenticated by admission. It must be
shown that it is what it purports to be - different to relevance
ACCC v Air NZ - ANS-1. Documents don't have to be authentic to be admissible.
2. Authenticity is for the tribunal of fact to determine.
3. S 58 allows inferences to be drawn from the document itself re relevance and
authenticity.
Smith v R - ANS-1. There is no discretion in determining relevance of evidence- either it
is relevant or it is not.
R v Shamouil - ANS-When assessing the probative value of evidence, take the
evidence at its highest.
ss 97, 98, 101, 137
R v Sood - ANS-"Questions of credibility and reliability play no part in the assessment of
the probative value of evidence"
, Lee v The Queen - ANS-s 59 is purposive. Consider what is intended to be asserted by
representation and whether the evidence is intended to be led to establish the truth of
that assertion.
Graham v The Queen - ANS-s 66 (Crim - Maker Available)
"Fresh" usually means hours or days, not weeks or months.
Adam v R - ANS-Overturned by insertion of s 101A. In s 102, the other use to be made
of the evidence must be admissible.
Papakosmas v R - ANS-The discretionary exclusions should not used to reinstate the
common law tests for admissibility.
Esso Australian Resources Ltd v Commissioner of Taxation - ANS-s 118/119 apply to
adducing evidence, not to production by compulsory process.
The test of CLP is whether the document or communication was created for the
"dominant purpose" of providing legal advice.
Mann v Carnell - ANS-1. Waiver of privilege arises from inconsistency between the
conduct of the client and maintenance of confidentiality, not fairness operating at large.
Stanoevski v R - ANS-Any exercise of discretion or leave requires the court to consider
s 192 EA.
R v Ellis - ANS-The test in s 101 must be applied by the statutory language. The
common law test in Pfenning may be relevant, but cannot usurp the statutory language.
Jones v The Queen - ANS-Shamouil does not prevent the consideration of competing
inferences which may arise from the evidence, when considering its probative value
Jones v Dunkel - ANS-If evidence could properly be given by a party on a matter in
dispute, and the party does not give evidence, then a court may infer that the evidence
would not have assisted the party's case.
Dyers v The Queen - ANS-A Jones v Dunkel inference should not be drawn in criminal
cases as it is incompatible with the presumption of innocence.
Dasreef v Hawchar - ANS-1. Expert evidence under s 79 must be given by a witness
with specialised knowledge based on training, study or experience.
