Fearless Advocacy and Bar Rule 60‪.‬

I Introduction It is interesting being part of an academic discussion of events that bear one's name. I do think, however, that the decision by the stand-in Legal Services Commissioner concerning the complaints made against me raises some interesting academic points. I will touch on two of those, but do not intend to do anything other than raise issues for consideration. In particular, the references below to APLA Ltd v Legal Services Commissioner (NSW) (1) (the APLA case) are not meant to be a scholarly analysis of the ratio of that case.
