Mr Bumble was not wrong when he said that ‘the law is a ass’. His only mistake was to use the article “a” instead of “an”, but you can blame Dickens for the intended slip. The grass has become greener for the proverbial ass in
What I am trying to say is that there is a long delay before I can file the case. Courts will not look at the case before it goes through a “mediation meeting” at the “Dispute Settlement Centre of Victoria”, which is a process by which the taxpayer pays for a team of bureaucrats, who have no legal power whatsoever. Their job is to sit with litigants and ask them to be nice to one another, and settle their disputes without the need to go to court.
CJ has already declared her intention not to amicably settle by repealing the unfounded decisions, passed by her conniving subservient committee of 2008 and the hoodwinked membership of 2011, that I am a person of abominable unbecoming qualities. She is not deterred by the fact that her main actor KR has abandoned the sinking ship. Apparently KR got sick of being hissed at by the rest of the gang, for spilling the beans by telling others that she was asked to formally submit, as complaint, her piece of poorly constructed fiction. CJ must still be encouraged by TH who is adamant that the fable was ‘a case of cheating with only one witness’, even after he apologised for inflating his figure of imaginary cheating incidents.
What I wanted to tell you by the above waffle is that our principled colleague Harry Malcolm and my humble self are both ready and waiting to go through mediation; albeit that we have different views on the matter. Harry believes that justice can be achieved via mediation, while I believe mediation to be a superflous formality before filing a court complaint. Someone out there is using some desperate delaying tactic.
