  • Equity the Equity of Sir Frederick Jordan W M C GUMMOW *
    Equity The Equity of Sir Frederick Jordan w M c GUMMOW * Perhaps the most striking feature of the history of the teaching of equity in the Sydney University Law School has been the involvement of practitioners who later joined the Bench, themselves then to deliver judgments which may have served to instruct subsequent generations of students. I mention, in particular, Sir George Rich, Mr Justice Roper, Sir Victor Windeyer, Sir Kenneth Jacobs and Sir Anthony Mason. But the strongest mark left upon the teaching of equity has been that of Sir Frederick Jordan. It was as Challis Lecturer in Equity (from 1909) that Mr Jordan prepared the first two editions of his Chapters in Equity, being, as he wrote, portions of the notes of lectures on the principles of equity delivered at the Law School in the University of Sydney. There followed four further editions, under other hands, which were used until some twenty years ago as the foundation of the equity course at the Law School. Sir Frederick Jordan also prepared for publication portions of his notes of lectures upon Administration of Estates of Deceased Persons. The third (and last) edition was prepared by the author in 1948. The teaching of that subject for over thirty years was profoundly associated with the late Mr Justice Hutley, whose dedication to the teaching of the law will, one hopes, long be remembered. Sir Frederick Jordan was appointed Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of New South Wales on 1 February 1934 and died, in office, on 4 November 1949. In the intervening period, he delivered judgments in the Full Court dealing with subjects which ranged far beyond the realm of equity.

Petros holds a Bachelor of Laws (with Honours) and a Bachelor of Medical Science from the University of Technology, Sydney. The combination of these two disciplines, in addition to being awarded the Roche Award for Excellence in Pharmacology at university, provides Petros with a solid foundation upon which to interpret medical evidence in the many cases in which he advises and appears. Within the spheres of his practice, Petros regularly appears in interlocutory applications, as well as in matters at both first instance and appeal (led and unled) in the Supreme, District and Local Courts of New South Wales, the Federal Circuit Court, Family Court of Australia and the NSW Court of Appeal. He appears predominantly for plaintiffs in personal injury matters, and insurers in motor vehicle property litigation, and his commercial practice sees him acting for both individuals and small companies. Other matters to which his experience extends includes worker’s compensation, wills and probate, fraud, building and construction and property.

  • Australian Legal Dynasties: the Stephens and the Streets
    Australian legal dynasties: The Stephens and the Streets KAREN FOX The word ‘dynasty’ evokes images of hereditary rulers, striding dusty castle corridors where their families have ruled for centuries. It might also suggest dominant political families, like the Kennedys, in republican settings like the United States of America. The term can, however, also be used to describe prominent families in other fields, such as business or the law, in which a succession of individuals from one family have scaled the heights of their profession. A number of such families have lived and worked in Australia, and their stories are captured in the biographies told in the Australian Dictionary of Biography and the associated People Australia websites. This article explores the stories of two families who might be thought of as Australian legal dynasties: the Stephens and the Streets. Between them, these two families produced across several generations four chief justices of New South Wales—and one person who turned the job down—as well as at least four other judges, and numerous successful barristers and solicitors. The Stephens family who came to be renowned in the legal world in Australia were a branch of a notable British clan, several of whose members were distinguished in the law in England, and one of whom—Sir Leslie Stephen—was the first editor of the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. The first lawyer in the branch of the family that was to become eminent in Australia seems to have been James, a conveyancer, who was born in 1733.1 James and his wife Sibella had several children.

He invites others to supplement, correct, or challenge him in Bar News, as appropriate. Sir Owen Dixon there were no indications of feelings, strong or otherwise. I saw Sir Owen Dixon CJ in court several times. During one Intellectuality was the atmosphere. No voices were raised and week in November 1958 he heard two appeals which I had no frowns crossed foreheads. At one point Dixon illustrated his the management of, although I was young, inexperienced thoughts in Ancient Greek and gave a further exposition when and untrained and had no appreciation that I was seeing the counsel seemed not to understand. The Greek reappeared at High Court in a golden age. These hearings competed for my 102 CLR 400 in his remarkably digressive dissenting judgment, attention with preparation for annual examinations. No wonder which is still lost on me. I know, from people who argued High the professors thought so little of me. The judges accompanying Court cases in those days, that the scene was not always as calm Dixon on the bench in Jones v Dunkel (1958–1959) 101 CLR as I saw it. Other judges, particularly Kitto J, sometimes tested 298 and Commissioner for Railways v Scott (1958–1959) 102 counsel very severely. CLR 392 were stellar company. I do not suppose that the High I did not ever see any case before Dixon where the Constitution Court has ever been stronger.
