ridiculous response

since when has the High Court been a "law" unto itself?

If the decisions/rulings they make are going to impact the running of the Govt of the Day, don't you think they should work in with & give that Govt(whatever party) a chance to make relevant plans to deal with the fall out of their rulings?

They have in the past.

Man released from immigration detention after High Court ruling charged with indecent assault

A man released from immigration detention as a result of the High Court's ruling on indefinite detention has faced an Adelaide court charged with two counts of indecent assault.

Aliyawar Yawari appeared in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on Monday, three weeks after he was released from Yongah Hill Immigration Detention Centre in Western Australia.

He has previously been accused of attacking three women and was convicted of assault in 2016.

It will only happen if we ever have a People's Court
just like the French Revolution.

In 1979 the High Court was given the power to administer its own affairs by the passage of the High Court of Australia Act 1979.

There are plenty of Govt depts that administer their own affairs.

That does not make them a "law" unto themselves.

The HC decision did NOT order the release of 140 illegal convicted criminals without visas due to their bad character. It ordered the release of ONE.

Immigration Minister Giles was a senior lawyer acting against the government for the Tampa pirates. He was secretary of the Socialist Left in Victoria.

In a bizarre outburst in parliament last week, O’Neil repeatedly labelled Dutton a “protector of paedophiles” over the Coalition’s stance. This, from someone who failed to prepare a legislative contingency plan in the lead-up to the High Court’s decision, resulting in sex offenders and other high-risk criminals being dumped en masse and unmonitored in the community.

As for the “protector of paedophiles” label, that is twisted and risible. If we are to extend O’Neil’s fallacious reasoning, NZYQ’s legal representatives are similarly culpable for appealing for their client’s release. So too is the full bench of the High Court for deciding as it did. Play your infantile blame game to the end, Minister, and you will discover it was another woefully inept Labor government that allowed NZYQ to arrive in Australia by boat in 2012.
