It should perhaps be noted that some companies have opted out of the class action and pursued their own actions.

Where I come from life is very simple:

You do the crime. You do the crime but you can not be tried for the same case twice. You can not offer someone immunity and then use technicalities to say no, now will charge you again.

"Sorry we can charge you again because your thousand page statement was not consistent"

" Sorry we can charge you again because we charged your company and now we feel like having a go at you as a private citizen"

Take the name and status of the accused out of this and it is a total witch hunt .......

Not surprisingly Pratt's lawyers are playing hard

Hi lawyers [REDACTED] up big time in the first place. Pratty is none too pleased that the documents weren't drawn up right to prevent this from happening to begin with.

What is he paying these cretins for, anyway?

There's no better Defence Lawyer than Robert Richter.....he's like a Pit Bull Terrier.

I think those lawyers would have been disposed off, hence Richter being on board.

This is getting very interesting.

Pratt's character has been very heavily defamed through all this.

Is the Pit Bull defence better than the Chewbacca defence?

Richter might be good (he'd wanna be for what he charges)...but many of you might not like the direction this is going. The ACCC has nothing to worry about - legally they've done nothing wrong and talks of entrapment are quite ridiculous. I actually don't see either party walking away with the chocolates here and at the end of the day Amcor will be the biggest losers.

Well thats a good thing - why should they come out of all this smelling like roses.


Oops there I go projecting again.

ACCC in conspiracy to prosecute Pratt, court told

The ignorance of some re the law and the legal profession...

CC - are you suggesting Richters claim that the ACCC improperly granted immunity is not valid??

I'm not saying.

I'm not allowed to.

Richard Pratt judge slams ACCC late document delivery
