Amending Pleadings In Australia
Summary
Courts may allow amendments to pleadings if a litigant was misled by a fraudulent representative. In Walton v Gardiner, the High Court of Australia granted remedies for misleading conduct, supporting the amendment of pleadings. This case illustrates the courts willingness to rectify pleadings affected by fraud, aiding applications for leave to amend. Other relevant cases include ACCC v G N Daniel Pty Ltd, which addresses misleading conduct, and Aon Risk Services Australia Ltd v ANU, which discusses case management and amendments. These cases highlight the importance of fairness and accuracy in legal proceedings, particularly in employment law, where misleading conduct and duty of care are critical.Full Conversation
