⚖️ JUDGEMENT ⚖️

It is with disappointment that we advise that today, the WA Court of Appeal has dismissed both the FALCONER & FINLAY appeal. Meaning the previous judgement made by Justice Allanson of the WA Supreme Court on 22 August 2022 remains in effect.

We stand by Plaintiffs Ben Falconer and Les Finlay and all others either directly involved or indirectly as a result of those disgraceful mandates.

We will now consider our options and determine the best way to move forward from here.

We will post the link to the full judgement once it becomes available and thank you all for your continued moral and financial support.

In closing, please see below comments from Plaintiff Ben Falconer that sums up this litigation.

“*The purpose of this litigation was to discover the rights that WA employees have over their own bodies in the workplace.

The government and judiciary have formed a perspective on that, and we the people need to reflect on where that leaves us*.”

Note that this is in the “original” Supreme Court building.

*‼️The Decision Is Made‼️***

The judicial review appeal decisions have been reached by the Western Australian Court of Appeal for the FALCONER & FINLAY -v- COMMISSIONER OF POLICE matters.

The judgement will be handed down during a public hearing tomorrow, Tuesday 30th April 2024 at 2.15PM.

The courtroom allocated for the judgement hearing will be listed on the WA Supreme Court website this evening and promptly shared by us once known.

We understand this is very short notice and it has certainly taken us by surprise but if possible, we hope you can join us for the judgement to show your support.

For those that can’t make it we will post the outcome to this page as soon as possibly.

?BREAKING?

Queensland Supreme Court rules that QLDs Covid vaccine mandates were UNLAWFUL.

A massive congrats and well done to the brave Police, Paramedics and other public servants involved in this prolonged, exhaustive and expensive legal challenge.

This case involves QLD specific Human Rights legislation (which Western Australia does not have) so there isn’t too much crossover between the two cases (WA one still awaiting judgement by the Court of Appeal). Still fantastic news and well deserved!

?UPDATE?

We are still patiently waiting for the WA Court of Appeal to consider the FALCONER & FINLAY -v- Commissioner of Police (COP) matters regarding the direction for police employees to get “vaccinated”.

The appeal hearing occurred on 06/SEP/23 before Court of Appeal President Buss, Justice Vaughan and Justice Hall. The Court reserved its decision meaning the matter will be considered and judgement handed down later, this usually occurs within 6 months.

We’ll promptly broadcast the decision date once known as it will be open to the public.
