Australia's leading independent law firm, Corrs
Chambers Westgarth, has assisted Professor Jenny Hocking on her
successful High Court case to obtain access to the 'Palace
Letters', the correspondence between the then Governor General
Sir John Kerr and Queen Elizabeth concerning the dismissal of the
Whitlam Government in 1975
According to Corrs' lead partner on the matter, James
Whittaker:
"This was an important public law case.
"Access to the correspondence will likely provide critical
insight to the inner workings of the decision by the Governor
General to dismiss the government. It has been a long, hard battle
which we have been engaged in since 2016."
