Welcome to the Evidence Act 2008


This blog was started back when the Evidence Act 2008 was nothing more than a gleam in Parliament's eye. It was an attempt to further understanding of some challenging new legislation when information about it was difficult to find.

Since then, many authors and luminaries have turned their minds to the complex issues the Act obliges Victorian lawyers to engage with. A blog devoted exclusively to this one piece of legislation isn't necessary, and is impossible for us to give the attention it deserves.

If you're looking for a more conventional blog posting on topical legal issues, have a look at Quis Custodiet Ipsos Custodes? by the same authors.

This site is no substitute for legal advice from an Australian lawyer. If you have a legal problem, it's great that you are doing a bit of research, but go consult a professional.

195. Prohibited question not to be published

A person must not, without the express permission of a court, print or publish-

(a) any question that the court has disallowed under section 41 (Improper questions); or

(b) any question that the court has disallowed because any answer that is likely to be given to the question would contravene the credibility rule; or

(c) any question in respect of which the court has refused to give leave under Part 3.7 (Credibility).

Penalty: 60 penalty units.
