Judge questions compensation rules in ACT Supreme Court
In Canberra yesterday Mr Justice Blackburn criticized a NSW Crimes Act section for illogic. He said a judge can order an offender to pay compensation to a victim but not to an insurance company that may have covered the victim. He warned that treating insurance as a blanket shield could deny rightful compensation and risk injustice. The judge noted Section 437 of the NSW Crimes Act allows compensation to an aggrieved person and said he would not decide the term but doubted an insurer as a party should be excluded. The comments came as Crown prosecutors discussed cases involving stolen goods and limited compensation orders.
