Cases

Turkot & Global GOLD Holding v Oxus Gold & Trew

Comment

Although there was little argument on the question, the court appears to have agreed with C's submission that the exclusionary criteria under s.69(1) had to be satisfied before the court could carve out issues from a jury trial to be tried by judge alone; that is, that s.69(4) is not a free-standing power permitting the court to order that any aspect of a libel case be tried by a judge alone.
