IN THE HIGH COURT OF AUSTRALIA

MELBOURNE OFFICE OF THE REGISTRY                       No. M 77, 129 & 130  of 2005

BETWEEN:     HILDA ZHANG
Applicant
and

THE ROYAL AUSTRALIAN CHEMICAL INSTITUTE INC.                     
Respondent

 

NOTICE OF A CONSTITUTIONAL MATTER


1.   The applicant gives notice that this proceeding involves a matter arising under the Constitution or involving its interpretation within the meaning of Section 78B of the Judiciary Act 1903.
2.   The constitutional matter that is raised is whether it counters the Covering Clause 5 of the Constitution that the Honourable Full Court hold that the applicant’s claim of unlawful termination “was continued vexatiously and without reasonable course” “after 28 June 2004” and that the applicant’s appeals from the Honourable Primary Judgments were “brought vexatiously or without reasonable cause”. Specifically:
(1)     whether the Honourable Courts have jurisdiction to order cost against the applicant following striking out the applicant’s claim certified by the Australian Industrial Relations Commission (the Commission), while Section 170CS(1) of the Workplace Relations Act 1996 (the WR Act) particularly specifies:
a party to a proceeding under section 170CP must not be ordered to pay costs incurred by any other party to the proceeding unless the court hearing the matter is satisfied……” (emphasis added);
(2)     whether it counters the Covering Clause 5 of the Constitution that the Honourable Courts’ held that the applicant’s claim of unlawful termination was vexatious or without reasonable course while the respondent “assuming” “the applicant’s allegations” “all to be true”, which were that the applicant refused and complained the respondent’s unlawful instructions to the respondent, the Auditor, the Union, Australian Taxation Office (the “ATO”), the WorkCover and the Victorian Employers Chamber of Commerce and Industries (the VECCI), in respect of the respondent had knowingly lodged faulty GST report to the ATO and falsified accounting records and reports;
(3)     whether it counters the Covering Clause 5 of the Constitution that the Honourable Courts not only held that the retaliatory dismissal was not unlawful under the WR Act but also defined to the effect that the applicant’s complaints to both of the internal and external authorities, to the Commission and to the Honourable Courts, with respect to the applicant’s superior forced the applicant to falsify accounting
 


Filed on behalf of: the applicant
Name:  Daming He                                                      
Address for service:
Telephone:

         records and reports, as vexatious or without reasonable course.
3.   The facts showing the matter is one to which Section 78B of the Judiciary Act 1903 applies are:
(1)     The termination of the applicant’s employment was managed by the VECCI. In the applicant’s original affidavit dated 17 March 2004 to a Honourable Federal Court, the applicant stated: that a senior consultant of the VECCI said that she understood that the applicant, as an accountant, had to follow the Accounting Standards and relevant government regulations but it was clear if the applicant did not follow her employer’s instruction, it would jeopardize her employment. 
(2)     On 15 October 2004, a Honourable Judge heard the respondent’s motion to strike out the applicant’s claim certified by the Commission, found that the applicant had allegedly produced three complaints to “outside authorities”, and held that “it is enough for [her] to allege”. His Honour also held: “I know it(“the filing of a complaint”)'s got nothing to do with court proceedings”. His Honour finally reserved His Honour’s decision and ordered the parties “to go to mediation”.
(3)     On 29 October 2004, the respondent sought “the disciplinary cost” after the Honourable Judge delivered the substantive judgment ([2004] FCA 1392) of striking out the applicant’s claim certified by the Commission without precedent. 
(4)     On 3 December 2004, in the hearing of the respondent’s motion for costs, the applicant submitted: that the Honourable Court did not hear the applicant’s claim, therefore, no costs should be ordered under s 170CS of the WR Act. However, the Honourable Judge ordered costs against the applicant without precedent, even through the applicant’s argument was not questioned by the Honourable Judge and was not contested by the respondent.
(5)     In the judgment of costs ([2004] FCA 1626), His Honour ignored the applicant’s submission mentioned at [(4)] above. His Honour stated: “the principal one being He, in the matter of an Application for Writs of Mandamus and Certiorari or Constitutional Relief [2004] FCAFC 161, a case in which the Full Court held that section 170CK(2)(e) only applied where the complaint had been made to “outside authorities” who have power to investigate the allegations made against the employer”. However His Honour did not mention any of the five “outside authorities” that His Honour had dealt with in the substantive judgment ([2004] FCA 1392), which were the external auditor, the VECCI, the ATO, the Union and the WorkCover Authority.
(6)     By notice of appeal dated 21 December 2004, the applicant appealed from the whole of the judgment of the Honourable Primary Judge. The appeal grounds were:
(a)     If the Commission had assumed that the applicant’s complaints had been “all to be true”, the Commission would have assessed that the applicant’s application had merit according to the Commission’s assessment in its certificate. The Honourable Primary Judge did not hear the application certified by the Commission, however, contravened s 170CS(1) of the WR Act and ordered costs against the applicant.
(b)     The facts were that the applicant complained to five “outsider authorities”. However, the Honourable Primary Judge ignored all of them.
(7)     The respondent did not provide any specified arguments in reply in relation to the applicant’s grounds outlined above, apart from saying:
(a)     the applicant constructed s 170CS incorrectly;
(b)     the applicant’s arguments were irrelevant to the cost question because “she had not in fact made any relevant complaints”.
(8)     On 6 May 2005, in the hearing of appeals, the Honourable Full Court did not questioned any applicant’s submissions. The respondent submitted, inter alia:
(a)     In accordance with s 298L(1)(i) of the WR Act employer was prohibited from dismissing a member of Union while the member of Union:
has made or proposes to make any inquiry or complaint to a person or body having the capacity under an industrial law to seek:
(i) compliance with that law; or                                                                                        
(ii) the observance of a person's rights under an industrial instrument
(the applicant is a member of the Union);
(b)     pars 115-117 of International Labour Organisation ‘Protection against Unjustified Dismissal’ Report of Committee of Experts, International Labour Office, 1995, which were the relevant paragraphs in relation to preventing workers from retaliatory dismissal;
(c)     the Auditor  and other authorities were not “competent administration authorit[ies]”, or the complaints were not for the purpose of s 170CK(2)(e).
The Honourable Full Court’s decisions were reserved at the end of the hearing.
(9)     On 3 June 2005 the Honourable Full Court dismissed the appeals. In the judgment ([2005] FCAFC 99), in relation to the appeal of costs, the Honourable Full Court dealt with neither the applicant’s nor the respondent’s submissions outlined at [(6)] to [(8)] above. Then, the respondent sought to recover its costs of the appeals. The Honourable Full reminded the respondent: “The matters of the costs of the appeal were not agitated” in the hearing of appeals. The respondent’s counsel replied: “I understand that.  We need to look at the judgment”.  The Honourable Full Court ordered the parties to file written submissions in respect of costs of appeals.
(10)   In its written submissions dated 21 June 2005, the Respondent relied on, inter alia:
(a)     the test applied by the Honourable Justice Wilcox in Kanan v Australian Postal and Telecommunications Union ([1992] 43 IR 257 at 263-4): “If success depends upon the resolution in the applicant’s favour of one or more arguable points of law, it is inappropriate to stigmatise the proceeding as being “without reasonable cause”. But where, on the applicant’s own version of the facts, it is clear that the proceeding must fail, it may properly be said that the proceeding lacks a reasonable cause.
(b) the Honourable Full Court did not accept further evidences filed in the proceedings of the appeals.
(11)   In written submissions in reply dated 1 July 2005, the applicant relied on, inter alia:
(a)     s 170CS of the WR Act prohibits the court from ordering costs against a party while matter certified by the Commission was not heard by the court. A common ground was that the Commission’s certificate was to weed out the unmeritorious case. Neither the Honourable Full Court rejected nor the respondent contested this argument specifically.
(b)     the applicant had complained to five “outside authorities” apart from the Commission’s certificate, and, in the judgment ([2005] FCAFC 187), the Honourable Full Court did not count three additional evidences filed and served in the proceedings of the appeals.
(12)   On 5 September 2005 the Honourable Full Court ordered costs of appeals against the applicant according to the parties’ written submission as requested by the respondent. In the judgment ([2005] FCAFC 187) (the Judgment No 2) the Honourable Full Court did not directly deal with the parties’ submissions outlined at [(10)] and [(11)] above, but holding “that the appeal was a proceeding brought vexatiously or without reasonable cause” ([2005] FCAFC 187 at [18]).
(13)   On 1 July 2005 the applicant applied for special leaves to appeal from the judgment of [2005] FCAFC 99 in respect of costs.
(14)   On 3 October 2005 the applicant applied for two special leaves to appeal to the High Court from the Judgment No 2, in relation to costs of appeals of both VID 1418 of 2004 and VID 1607 of 2004. In the written cases, the applicant raised, inter alia:
(a)     in the applicant’s written case of M77 of 2005, the applicant’s arguments outlined at [(11)] above were not properly dealt with by the Honourable Full Court;
(b)     in the applicant’s written case of M129 of 2005,
(i)      s 170CS(1) operates under s 170CP, when an application certified by the Commission and the parties were well informed by the Commission under s 170CF; therefore, comparing with s 347, s 170CS adds “must” not order cost “unless the court hearing the matter” and “is satisfied” that the “the costs to be incurred by that other party because of an unreasonable act or omission”;
(ii)     the Honourable Full Court ignored the facts that the applicant had complained to “outside authorities”;
(iii)    in the applicant’s affidavit sworn on 1 July 2005 the applicant gave evidence that she complained to the Union, and that the Union consequently contacted the respondent; however, the Honourable Full Court held that the affidavit was irrelevant to the matter of costs, even through the argument was whether the applicant had complained to a third parties before the dismissal and whether the respondent had known that the applicant complained to a third party before she was terminated;
(c)     in the applicant’s written case of M130 of 2005,
(i)      in the hearing of the respondent’s motion to strike-out of the applicant’s application in the Honourable Primary Court, the respondent conceded: “the unions are registered organisations under the WRA, so we could say that they are in a sense a competent administrative quasi - a body”, but the Honourable Full Court, apart from asserted it was irrelevant ([2005] FCAFC 187 at [21]), did not disclose that the applicant’s affidavit sworn on 1 July 2005 was in relation to that the applicant complained to the Union.
(ii)     In the Judgment No. 2, the applicant’s written submission was altered from “The Primary Court did not hear the matter certified by the Australian Industrial Relations Commission (the “Commission”) according to the prima facie merit of the case” to “this Court (the Honourable Full Court) did not ‘hear the matter certified by the Australian Industrial Relations Commission (the "Commission") according to the prima facie merit of the case’” (emphysis added) ([2005] FCAFC 187 at [22]).
(15)   On 15 March 2006 the Honourable High Court allowed the applicant to file and serve this notice under section 78B of the Judiciary Act 1903.
(16)   The applications for special leaves to appeal have not yet been listed.
Dated the                     day of   April 2006.

How does the Commonwealth participate in constitutional cases?
Chapter 9. Constitutional litigation and the Commonwealth
How does the Commonwealth participate in constitutional cases?
If the case is one to which the Commonwealth is not a party, the first step is for the Attorney-General to decide whether to intervene. Generally, s.78B notices are received in the Attorney-General’s office, which forwards the notice to the Constitutional Litigation Unit of the Australian Government Solicitor (AGS). AGS is a law firm owned by the Commonwealth. Pursuant to the Legal Services Directions 2005 (which are made under the Judiciary Act), generally speaking, and subject to my role as the Solicitor-General, constitutional work can be performed only by AGS and the Attorney-General’s Department.
AGS forms a view on whether the Attorney-General should intervene. In doing so, AGS consults with the Solicitor-General, the Constitutional Policy Unit of the Attorney-General’s Department and any other area of the department or other department that has a policy interest in the subject matter of the notice (for example, if the constitutional issue is the validity of a Commonwealth law, AGS consults with the department that administers that law). If AGS and the Solicitor-General agree that there should be no intervention, the Attorney-General is not further consulted and there is no intervention.
If the Attorney-General approves intervention, generally, AGS acts for the Attorney-General in the conduct of the matter, but briefs counsel to appear for the Attorney-General at the hearing. Generally, AGS will brief one senior and one junior barrister. The pool of talent from which counsel are selected includes the Solicitor-General, senior constitutional lawyers employed by AGS (for example, AGS’s Chief General Counsel, Henry Burmester) and private barristers with expertise in constitutional law. Generally, where the matter is of significant importance to the Commonwealth, or where the matter is particularly complex, AGS will brief the Solicitor-General to appear, along with a junior barrister. The Attorney-General has issued guidelines on briefing the Solicitor-General.
By what power does the Commonwealth participate in constitutional cases? 

 What are the advantages of the way the Commonwealth participates in constitutional cases?
In my view, the way that the Commonwealth handles constitutional litigation allows it to present its arguments to the court in a way that ideally combines the experience and expertise of the public sector as well as private practice.
AGS and the Attorney-General’s Department employ outstanding constitutional lawyers, many of whom have careers advising, and acting for, the Commonwealth in relation to constitutional matters. This deep well of experience and expertise is obviously invaluable to the Commonwealth in the conduct of its cases. AGS and Attorney-General’s Department lawyers and advisers generally have strong relationships with, and the trust of, the government. These lawyers have finely honed skills in constitutional law and policy, as well as long memories of cases won and lost in the past and a good sense of some of the reasons why.
However, by also involving private counsel, the Commonwealth is able to draw on the particular skills and attributes of the private bar.
Whereas the public sector brings the advantages of specialist expertise in public law, private barristers bring specialist expertise in advocacy. Advocacy is as much a specialisation as constitutional law; a person who does something all the time will tend to do it better than someone who does it only occasionally.
Second, private barristers offer the attribute of independence. As sole practitioners bound by the cab-rank rule to act for all who come to them regardless of their personal views, private barristers tend to practice on both sides of the record. That is, leading private barristers in Australia with expertise in constitutional law will have acted for the Commonwealth and its emanations, the states and territories and their respective emanations, corporations, citizens and others over the course of their careers at the bar. They will have argued for and against the validity of Commonwealth legislation. A barrister who represents all sides over time is better able to advise his or her client at any particular time; he or she tends to have a broader view of the law than a solicitor who acts only for or against the Commonwealth.
Third, by retaining private barristers to appear for it, the Commonwealth enhances its capacity sensibly to cooperate with opponents in the conduct and, occasionally, settlement of cases. Almost universally, private barristers with expertise in constitutional law trust one another. These barristers represent a small pool of lawyers who regularly appear with, and against, each other. These circumstances facilitate a highly respectful and cordial professional culture that is amenable to the smooth conduct of litigation.
In many respects, the Solicitor-General (who, incidentally, is neither a solicitor nor a general!) tends to have a combination of these various skills and attributes. The Solicitor-General is a statutory office-holder, appointed by the Governor-General for a term (see the Law Officers Act 1964). The functions of the Solicitor-General are: a) to act as counsel for the Commonwealth and its emanations, and so on; b) to advise the Attorney-General on questions of law referred to him by the Attorney-General; and c) to carry out such other functions ordinarily performed by counsel as the Attorney-General requests. As a matter of practice, the dominant function of the Solicitor-General has been to appear on behalf of the Commonwealth in important constitutional cases.
Thus, like AGS and Attorney-General’s Department lawyers, the Solicitor-General tends to possess the skills that arise from appearing in the area of constitutional law over time. However, the Solicitor-General has generally been selected from the pool of private barristers with expertise in constitutional law. Thus, the Solicitor-General also tends to bring with him (so far, the eight solicitors-general since Federation have all been male) the skills developed over a long career as a specialist advocate at the bar, representing many interests over that career and forging many strong relationships with fellow barristers. Finally, there is an advantage in the Solicitor-General appearing in almost all the major constitutional cases because of the importance of the Commonwealth not putting submissions in one case that are inconsistent with its submissions in another and the desirability of not giving an answer to a question from the Bench in one case that might be used against the Commonwealth in another. This is not a problem when one appears for a private litigant.
How does the Commonwealth participate in constitutional cases? 


Conclusion
I have attempted to demonstrate that the ways in which the Commonwealth conducts constitutional litigation enable it to combine the best aspects of constitutional legal experience in the public sector with the specialist skills and knowledge of the private bar. Hopefully, from this mix of expertise, we are better able to advance the public interest.
What are the advantages of the way the Commonwealth participates in constitutional cases?

LIFE-BAN: TELL PUBLIC THAT DOING NO WRONG MUST BE TREATED WITH A HEAVY HAND AND TO FIND A SCAPEGOAT FOR IT

Life ban against the principles of justice: Sreesanth's lawyer

The former Indian pacer's lawyer Rebecca John has ripped into the ban and said that it would not stand legal scrutiny.

Press Trust of India  | Last updated on Sunday, 15 September 2013 11:03Printfont size-+
New Delhi:  Calling the life ban imposed on S Sreesanth "bizarre", his lawyer Rebecca John said the former India pacer will challenge the BCCI's decision in court as it is "completely against the principles of natural justice".

Sreesanth was banned for life by the BCCI after being found guilty of spot-fixing in the IPL in an internal inquiry conducted by the board's Anti-Corruption and Security Unit chief Ravi Sawani.

"The (BCCI) order is completely against the principles of natural justice," John told ESPNcricinfo.

"It has based its findings on personal interactions with members of Delhi Police as well as taken material from the chargesheet that has been filed by the police before a sessions court.

"If that is so then they should have waited for the court to determine whether or not any of this holds up in legal proceedings," she pointed out.

John described the Sawani report as "loose" and questioned the basis of its findings. (Sreesanth tweets his innocence)

"They just picked up conversations they had with members of Delhi Police where they said Sreesanth and other members of the cricketing community confessed before them. It is a very, very loose report with little or no substance in it," John said.

She asked how the evidence which wasn't enough to keep the accused players in jail, could be considered proof of their guilt by the BCCI. Sreesanth, along with four other cricketers, is currently out on bail after spending quite a few days in jail. (Sreesanth finds support in Kerala)

"The fact is that the sessions court has released players on bail and said none of this adds up as a case. (The court said) it is very, very tenuous - the link between whatever bookie you are saying had a role to play and the players, particularly Sreesanth, and granted him bail," she said.

"And then this BCCI's one-man committee says that Sreesanth is guilty of spot-fixing and hands over a life sentence to him. Not only is it is excessive, it is completely contrary to all principles of natural justice," she added. John said Sawani's findings are based on conversations with policemen who are investigating the case, which cannot be enough to impose a life ban.

"How does he come to a conclusion? By having personal conversations with police officials. And you are basing your findings on these?" she asked.

"If you want to read these audio tapes, which are part of the Delhi Police (evidence) in a criminal trial, the link is so tenuous. You will believe it only because the Special Cell of Delhi Police is saying you will have to believe it in a particular way. In any case these are allegations which have to be assessed, processed and a finding has to be determined by a court of law," John said.

She claimed that the life ban was imposed at the behest of BCCI's President-in-exile N Srinivasan.

"The only reason the life ban was imposed -- Mr Srinivasan was very keen to tell the public and the people of India he was treating (the issue) with a heavy hand and some people had to be made scapegoats," John said.

"What is more annoying form the point of the view of the players is that they have let the big fish get away. What happens to Mr Srinivasan. He is owner of Chennai Super Kings and there is a case of conflict of interest pending in the Supreme Court against him.

"The Bombay High Court recently had called the two-member committee illegal after it cleared Gurunath Meiyappan and Raj Kundra (part of Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals respectively) from corruption charges," she added.

John said her client has been made a scapegoat in the entire scandal.

"Now when the BCCI, of which Srinivasan is the de facto or de jure head, conducts itself in this kind of fashion and then it hands over these sentences to players, who are soft targets, it is a little bizarre," John said.

W.A. Lawyer punished by his judicial peers for exposing injustice.

Nicholas, I read the judgment of the supreme Court that removed you from the roll. You are still a lawyer, just not as I understand it permitted to act as a legal practitioner.
.'
I have my concerns about some of the statements made by the court, such as that it cannot go behind the findings presented to them and that you misconceived their roll, as I view you were entitled to have an IMPARTIAL consideration and not a bias one that effectively made it a STAR CHAMBER COURT.
 
I understand you made certain errors but found in some of the comments by the court they were too harsh. for example that you presented your case not understanding what the court could do, such as the evidence presented against you, I view the Court should not be bound to be limited to evidence presented, regardless of legislation, because it cannot be dictated by the Parliament what it should or shouldn't do. If the Parliament had legislated to deny you to present any evidence would the court then also comply with this and be merely to rubber stamp what the parliament dictates?
 
in case it interest you I just published an article:
