Just to be clear ..........Judge Kelly is a 'stickler' for the law.He won't be pushed on timelines etc
He is a very well versed judge in all facets of law and he would not be put on this case,if he wasn't.
To me he is in total control and is not nervous.He also has a good sense of humor,which I adore.

I think most would want Novak to compete!
Most Djokovic fans, and promoters of the AO. As to local and world consensus, we will see, either at the AO, or down the road. I'm not even sure about most tennis players, right now.

Yes his best friend Craig Tiley is probably listening to every word on this case.

No code. I'm just too lazy to go over and post it. Besides, this is a non tennis thread anyway. See what I just did there. :face-with-tears-of-joy:

Just heard Gill Gross on a podcast musing about being disallowed entry into Australia for 3 years if deported for cause! He doubts it'll happen! :pleading-face:
That wont happen.,he wont have to reapply in 3 years to get back into Australia

This is a real mess of all concerned's doing! Novak for not being vaccinate & your local & Federal gov'ts divergent decisions concerning C-19! :facepalm:
Our Government has never waived,or our states,we all have to get double vaccinated,some dont like the law,which is their right.So if you want to come into states of Australia being double vaccinated is the easiest passage through.Simple as that.
Syydney where I live is not soo hard on nonvaccinated people,of all the states we are the most tolerant

"Djokovic's experience at the airport upon arrival in Australia is likely to prove key to his case.
A tired and confused Djokovic claims that he asked for extra time to speak to his agent and his lawyers and that his request was granted before he was woken up at 6am and urged to agree to the visa cancellation as it was in his best interest to do so.
His legal team say this advice was "spurious" and "manifestly unjust".
It is being argued that this treatment by border officials when he arrived in Melbourne was unfair and, if deemed to be so, could be the basis of him winning the verdict."

Wow. In the name of every person who has ever been mistreated by authorities, and have had that held against them, anyway, this CERTAINLY would be preferential treatment, if these are the grounds. I'm pretty sure that translates internationally.

I meant he wont have to wait 3 years to apply to get back into Australia.
Sorry...I meant the same. By which I meant, he's not even going to get deported THIS year, let alone sent off for 3.
