Lawyers here would know more than I do but can’t DeGoey adjourn the case if the set date wasn’t suitable for him? Surely he can request an extension to better prepare his defence? Use the legal system for your own benefit.

The prosecution haven't even presented their brief of evidence yet... This hearing was always going to be an adjournment. I would expect the next hearing will be a committal hearing, the actual trial (if it goes ahead) will be yet later again. So there are no grounds or need to request an extension and as mentioned what would be better is for the committal to be brought forward, not delayed furtherLazza wrote:Lawyers here would know more than I do but can’t DeGoey adjourn the case if the set date wasn’t suitable for him?

Update on De Goey court case
Yes saw this but also noted.
"No details of the allegations were aired to the court, but magistrate John Bentley said it was “a factual dispute”. Mr Hargreaves said a police summary of the allegations was “not accepted”.
No idea what that exactly means and who is disputing it, but as in all court cases it will likely be drawn out

Hargreaves is De Goey’s lawyer. I could be wrong, but my reading of that excerpt is simply that the defence and prosecution are in disagreement about what actually occurred, which is presumably pretty standard in criminal trials.

A factual dispute *usually* means a guilty plea from the defendant but the details are disputed, in which case (if the prosecution and defense can’t come to an agreement) the judge will hear from witnesses (from both sides) to determine exactly what occurred, but without the need to determine guilt which has already been admitted. However in the case of co-accused it *might* mean that De Goey agrees the assault occurred but he disputes the extent severity of his role in it

^ Thanks for the clarification, Rd10. That would make sense given De Goey reportedly already apologised to the plaintiff a couple of years back. Fair to assume he accepts that something untoward happened but not necessarily what he’s been charged with.

Just as we try to get over the Internal report on Racism, this issue with De Goey will rear its head,and give the MSM and Murdoch media, shock jocks, mor ammo too crucify the Club, more hype and spin,to see newspapers, get ratings up.

Exactly right Piesnchess. As bloody usual, the pricks in the hack media will try and get blood from a stone. They will wildly exaggerate the beat up the entire issue instead of merely presenting the facts. JDG has to face the court for what he allegedly did but not for something he didn’t do if it is falsely alleged by the ropes in the hack media for their own pecuniary benefit.

De Goey all hype and little substance
We all Talk how Great De Goey is Going to be.
But he is 25 Years Old and should be in Prime of his Career and Dominating.
We see Glimpses but that is all and He can go Missing for a Very Long Time.
Tonights Game he was Missing nearly the Whole Game.
He needs to Step Up or be seen as a Could of Been
He thinks he is good enough to get a Million a Year where he is Worth Half that at Most
