Kuczborski v Queensland [2014] HCA 46

ON 14 NOVEMBER 2014, the High Court of Australia delivered Kuczborski v Queensland [2014] HCA 46 (14 November 2014).

http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/cases/cth/HCA/2014/46.html

A Hells Angels member brought proceedings challenging the constitutional validity of Queensland legislation enacted to disrupt the operations of motorcycle clubs and associations.

The plaintiff sought declarations that the legislation is invalid as it infringes the the principle of Kable v Director of Public Prosecutions (NSW) [1996] HCA 24 by conferring functions on the Queensland courts that are incompatible with their institutional integrity and therefore contrary to Chapter III of the Constitution.

The High Court held unanimously that the plaintiff did not have the standing to seek the declarations as he had not been charged with or committed any offence under the legislation and therefore was not restricted in his freedom.

The court also held that the laws do not impose an extraordinary imposition on the Queensland judiciary.

Hunter and New England Local Health District v McKenna [2014] HCA 44

ON 12 NOVEMBER 2014, the High Court of Australia delivered Hunter and New England Local Health District v McKenna; Hunter and New England Local Health District v Simon [2014] HCA 44 (12 November 2014)

The High Court held that Hunter and New England Local Health District did not owe a duty of care to the relatives of a man who was killed by a patient who had been discharged from the Taree Hospital into the deceased man’s care. No duty of care was owed by the hospital or the doctor because they were under statutory obligations under the Mental Health Act prohibiting the detention of a mentally ill patient unless the hospital’s medical superintendent was of the opinion that no other less restrictive care was appropriate and reasonably available.

Adeels Palace Pty Ltd v Moubarak [2009] HCA 48 | 10 November 2009

ON 10 NOVEMBER 2009, the High Court of Australia delivered Adeels Palace Pty Ltd v Moubarak; Adeels Palace Pty Ltd v Bou Najem [2009] HCA 48 (10 November 2009).

http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/cases/cth/HCA/2009/48.html

Early on New Years day in 2003, Mr Moubarak and Mr Bou Jajem were injured on the premises of Adeels Palace Restaurant in the Sydney suburb of Punchbowl. The men were shot by another patron who had earlier been involved in a dispute on the dance floor, left the premises and returned with a gun.

The men sued for damages, alleging that their injuries were the result of Adeels’ negligence in failing to provide any or any sufficient security on the night of the incident. The men succeeded before the District Court of NSW and NSW Court of Appeal. However, the High Court allowed Adeels’ appeal and set aside the earlier decisions.

The High Court held that the evidence did not establish that action could have been taken to prevent the violent conduct occurring. The court held that the evidence only went as far as showing that the provision of more security might have prevented the damage but did establish, on the balance of probabilities, that it would have prevented the damage.

The court held that it was unnecessary to determine whether or not there was a breach of duty of care because the men had not established that Adeels’s failure to provide any or any sufficient security was a necessary cause of their damage as required under s5D of the Civil Liability Act 2002 (NSW).
