Lehrmann in new bid to clear name after defamation loss
Bruce Lehrmann will probably spend three days to convince a Court of Appeal to throw the findings he raped at his colleague Brittany Higgins in the Parliament Building.
Former Federal Political Staff is trying to overthrow a Federal Court Decision, which was not darkened by Network Ten and journalist Lisa Wilkinson during an interview with Mrs Higgins on the project in 2021.
Justice Michael Lee found that Mrs Higgins was raped at the Parliament House in 2019 was significantly true in a decision against Lehrmann in April 2024.
However, 29 -year -old Lehrmann claims that the decision was full of mistakes and started an objection to ventilated for three days, starting at Sydney on Wednesday.
The former liberal personnel claim that the procedural justice was rejected because the events found by the judge are “very different” from the case of him.
Higgins points out again that he said again that he says “no in a cycle” during the alleged incident, and Adalet Lee is not satisfied.
Lehrmann argues that the case of Justice Lee was not given to him during a cross -examination for his reaction.
Due to the deficiencies of Ms. Higgins’s evidence, the judge should not have been raped.
The judge found that Lehrmann had a “non-flexible recklessness” mentality that shows that he knew that he was “hell-bükmış ve and did not consent to have sex with Mrs Higgins.
However, this definition of rape was criticized by Lehrmann, who claims to be inconsistent with the meaning transferred to an ordinary person.
Justice Lee is accused of accusing of finding that if Lee had succeeded in slander against them, he would have the right to get only $ 20,000 damage.
Lehrmann’s lawyer Zali Burrows said that a seven -digit amount should be given for the “wrong crime of rape”.
Lehrmann continues to deny that he had been sexually assaulted by Mrs. Higgins, and in 2022, a criminal case against him was abandoned without any findings against him.
Justice Lee, in his 2024 decision, “Lehrmann escaped from Lions,” he made the mistake of returning to his hat, “he said.
