The president of Queensland’s Land Court has excused herself from a further re-hearing of the New Acland coal mine case, to be tentatively set for November, saying she had formed views about the merits of some of the issues that could affect its proceedings.
At the first court date for the long-running legal fight since the High Court set aside previous orders this month, judge Fleur Kingham said it would be “inappropriate” for her to be involved beyond managing the case to a new hearing.
