Publisher argued court should be as transparent as possible given ‘extraordinary’ public interest in case
News Corp has failed in its bid to gain access to redacted documents tendered during last month’s federal court case which stopped barrister Sue Chrysanthou SC acting for former attorney general Christian Porter.
In the federal court on Thursday, lawyer for the Murdoch-owned publisher, Justin Quill, sought access to documents submitted during a four-day hearing earlier this month, arguing the court should be as transparent as possible given the “extraordinary” public interest in the case.
