High Court of Australia

Powers JJ
Original judgment source is linked above.
For the reasons mentioned, I hold that the Full Court was right in holding that the findings of the jury and the judgment in the action should be set aside, and that a new trial should be had between the parties, and I agree that the appeal should be dismissed.
Appeal dismissed with costs, including costs of motion for special leave to appeal.
