Ep 11 - DBC Update, The Referendum Conundrum, Virginia Trioli Arrests Would-Be Car Thief
Dallas Buyers Club LLC has been told to cough-up $600,000 by the Federal Court, if it wants to send letters to alleged copyright infringers. The bond is intended to dissuade the consortium from speculative invoicing. Is this a victory for common sense? What legal options does Dallas Buyers Club LLC now have?
There has been much debate recently over the need for a referendum, or even a plebiscite, before the Australian Government will pass laws enabling marriage equality. What’s the difference? Are either of these necessary from a legal standpoint, for the Government to make legislative change to the Marriage Act? What does a referendum or a plebiscite actually do, and is the Government legally obliged to honour the result?
Veteran newsreader and journalist Virginia Trioli arrested a man last week when she found him allegedly attempting to steal from her car. Police arrived, and the man was taken into custody. But what if he was “just looking for somewhere to sleep”? Is there a criminal offence in the circumstances, and did Ms Trioli have a “power of arrest”?
