Bus driver negligence case yields ACT Supreme Court payout
In Canberra, Mrs Gwen Keillor was awarded 57 685 plus costs against the Commonwealth in the ACT Supreme Court over a December 29 1970 bus incident at Manuka Furneaux Street. The case cited driver negligence as the cause of injuries to Keillor and other passengers. Separate Canberra court actions saw Leonard Anthony Sly convicted on multiple charges with partial appeals dismissed or altered. Hindle pled guilty to unlawful possession of property and received probation supervision. A separate matter involved a claimant receiving 500 under terms later found to be breached. The day’s hearings continued with further evidence and rulings expected.
