A third ground remains in place.

Which is?

"Leave was granted for the group to re-plead a claim for relief under the Australian Consumer Law within 28 days."

dear Aussie,
join a class action and get your money back - it wasn't fair.

What is about 1300 people you don't reckon was a 'class?'

Further, on an Australia wide basis, we have action in the Courts against Uber directly.

(This one was against the Qld Govt, and the Fat Lady has not yet sung.)

dear Aussie,
I don't know what you're doing -
you might have told us but I didn't read it.

I believe you have a right to get every penny of your money back as

why should you have paid for a license when Uber
did the same work without a license?

Tell that to the Judge. And......

I would have been taking the credit has those two dismissed parts of the Claim got through. They were my idea (expressed at a meeting Owners had in Burpengary Qld about two years) with which the clever dick QCs and Lawyers in Victoria agreed, but they did not come up with those themselves.

The one that did get through, was not my idea but I agree with it.

Yes, with the caveat that while I promoted those concepts as causes of action, the smart arse QCs and Lawyers in Victoria who drew the pleadings and have the running of the case, agreed with me, although they did not (in all their wonderfulness) come up with those possibilities themselves.

Yes, we pay the Government's costs of that application it made to strike us out because they got up on two out of the three issues. That cost contingency was already catered for with in excess of $M2 in our Lawyer's Trust Account as a war chest.

Imagine this.

Someone comes up with a highly AI software that knows every single legal requirement in the world.

This software, is infallible, never gets its wrong because it works on pure logic.

It even has been programmed to consider extenuating circumstances.

Now, this program could easily replace the corrupt magistrates and judges we currently have.
In fact it's faster, more honest, incorruptible and above all, not being paid ridiculious sums of money to pontificate and doesn't live the sound of it's own voice.

So, we decide to do away with corrupt judges, magistrates and give the world honest legal systems.

I wonder, how much woukd the judges, magistrates and legal profiteers protest about their lost income?

And if we went one step further and introduced the same into politics.

WE COULD SAVE THE WORLD

If it works on pure logic it is doomed in the legal system.

Aussie -

A good legal explanation as to why natural justice
was denied would be enlightening.

It has SFA to do with 'natural justice.'
