Court of Appeal: 2020 Year in Review

28/04/2021

Members’ attention is drawn to a new publication entitled “A Year in Review: 2020” which seeks to gather in a single, hyperlinked document, all of the decisions delivered by the New South Wales Court of Appeal in the course of 2020. The document is designed to allow a reader quickly to identify recent decisions delivered by the Court of Appeal in a given area of legal interest with greater specificity than simply by reference to generalised catchwords such as “Administrative law” or “Contract”, for example. Each of the decisions digested contains detailed catchwords with a hyperlink to the full text of the decision.

It is hoped that this will provide a valuable resource for judges, practitioners, litigants, academics and students, and that a similar document will be published on an annual as well as consolidated basis.

The publication will be available on the Court of Appeal website and can be visited by the following link: https://nswca.judcom.nsw.gov.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/2020-Year-in-Review.pdf
