Inspector Nash v Bulga Underground Operations Pty Ltd (re Newstead) [2015] NSWDC 6
1. The parties have drawn to my attention my treatment of particulars in i.i, i.ii and i.iii and left it to me to review that treatment and apply any correction I consider appropriate under the slip rule.
2. The parties' concern is proper. It is evident that in dealing with particulars i.i, i.ii and i.iii, I turned to further particulars or items that were set out in the prosecutor's submissions and considered each of those items. I then failed to relate back to particulars i.i, i.ii and i.iii in my consideration of those items.
3. For reasons given at [189] to [197] and [198] to [203], the prosecutor has made good her case on particular i.i. and i.iii, but not on particular i.ii. Particular i.ii, dealing with the SFM Plans, fails also for reasons set out at [154] to [162].
