Current NSW and VIC Court Arrangement

The pandemic affects almost everything and the legal industry is one of them.

Attending court is certainly a people-gathering activity so it has been banned during the pandemic period.

Different courts have their different approaches to deal with the situation.

Below is the useful information:

NSW: 

The NSW law society has a list for all  updates of the court and tribunals in NSW and Federal level which also have a list of the webpages of the relevant courts and tribunals.

A law firm, named as Fourtree Lawyers located Central Coast of NSW, has its opinion here.

VIC: 

The Judicial College of Victoria has created one page to list the coronavirus and the courts which is quite comprehensive and also has link to the courts and tribunals. The page includes almost all jurisdiction in Australia.

General: 

LexisNexis has discussed this issue here.
Justice Connect has its suggestions here.
