We understand that many people were frustrated at not being able to join the Court stream today. We believe this was due to bandwidth issues. As a result, we will be requesting that the next Case Conference as well as the up-coming hearings be moved to YouTube whose bandwidth should be sufficient.
We also need to let you know that these extensions of time over and above what we originally budgeted for, are causing an increase in costs. If we had been able to simply go to the Case Conference, followed in short order by our substantive hearing, the original $300,000 would have come close to paying for the entire case. At this point however, we are going to be increasing our fundraising goal to $450,000.
Due to the issues with the GiveSendGo website, we are unable to log in to raise that goal but will do so as soon as we’re able. We are also unable to put updates on our fundraising page at https://givesendgo.com/AVNJudicialReviewFund. All updates are currently available here. We also urge you to familiarise yourselves with the terms and conditions of donating which can be found here.
Thank you for your amazing support - with your assistance, we will continue to fight for the freedom of every Australian to make medical choices for themselves and for their minor children.
