Today I had a court mention in response to the charge of "offensive behaviour" for a Political demonstration we performed in Ballarat as part of a historical veneration of the Eureka Stockade on December 3rd 2023.
On the 21st of February I notified the Ballarat Court, Prosecution and all the Attorney Generals that I was filing for this to be heard as a constitutional matter against Victoria Police (Notification of 78b).
All relevant parties were notified and the correct process is for the matter to be stood down until one or more of the Attorney Generals intervenes in the matter.
The Ballarat Registrar has adjourned the matter for a contest mention on the 6th of May on the basis that "no evidence has been provided of the service of the letter".
Despite the fact that the Ballarat court and Prosecution have both been notified of the same letter that the Attorney Generals have.
2 out of the 7 Attorney Generals have responded saying they will not contest, meaning the letter has been served, I have the responses, I have provided the evidence of the responses, but Ballarat Magistrates court continues to attempt to violate the constitution and proceed with the matter.
