Really? How did you go?? I'm still waiting.....

Hi Dolis, Firstly, have you checked the UAC guide on what courses are offered? They are soo many courses out there. Go have a look and carefully read what's in the course. I would say starting in a media related/communication degree should be the best way to go. As for which uni/private...

Haha sufyan I just read your last message. In my own perspective he should be refused bail too..tsk armed robbery what the hell..crazy ppl!! Haha anyway did you do qu 2 also?? How'd u go if you did?

hey! congrats! i'm still waiting anxiously for the Sydney replies! where are they doing the interviews? At the firm you're working in or Chartered Accountant's firm?

I see, i think i will include it under that too.. How will you be addressing the s32? Do you say "Your Honour, I would like to address section 32 to be considered in this matter" and then start listing the good things about him and things that works for him in the s32? Just wondering, you will...

Hey jess19, yep I'm doing question 2. I mentioned the witness and said the it does not match with the forensic test so therefore the evidence is not very strong. I'm still thinking how to include the finding of gun at brother's house....where should I include it in the s32?

Yay!! Thanks for your guidance Lara!!! :sun:

Thanks for posting the guide up! We got the same guide too in class. Am I right in saying there is no presumption for or against the granting of bail. Under s 13, an accused is still eligible for bail even though there is no entitlement to bail under ss 8A and 9. :confused:

Hmm... I see that section 98 is mentioned in Section 9 (1)(c) of Bail Act and that says Presumption in favour of bail for certain offences except: offences under section 26,27,28......98 of the Crimes Act 1900. so that would end up being Presumption Against. Are you trying to give me that...

Ok thanks everyone. I'm just going with Presumption against bail because sawn off shotgun is under serious firearms and weapons offences so there is presumption against. That means I will need to persuade the Judge with the s32 criteria.

Thanks Lara1986, yes I'm doing the bail applications. Can I just add to the case that the accused was holding a sawn off shot gun and caused a deep laceration to one of the staff members. He was not on any parole at the time. I'm just reading the Bail Act now section 8B how it says...

This might sound like a silly question, but is someone charged with armed robbery granted presumption in favour of bail or against? Because I'm getting mixed answers and thoughts...

Congrats! When did you receive their reply? I'm waiting anxiously too!
