And, in keeping with the emerging theme of Antipodean legal history in today's posts, we note
a recent call for contributors to "a comprehensive history of the Supreme Court of Victoria [which] is to be published to help celebrate its 175th anniversary on 12 April 2016. The project team is seeking input from the legal profession and wider community to help make the historic publication as detailed and engaging as possible. The book will recognise the contribution of the Court to the rule of law and the development of Victoria, and examine the Court in a social, legal and historical context.”
