Weatherall's Law:
IP in the land of Oz (and more)
 

Tuesday, September 20, 2005
 
Well well well - finally we have another female High Court Judge.

Justice Susan Crennan, Federal Court judge since 2003, has been appointed to the High Court, effective 1 November 2005. She's been a Queen's Counsel in 1989 and in 1993-1994 was the first female chair of the Victorian Bar Council.

Notably, IP was one of Justice Crennan's specialties at the Bar, and she has judged a few IP cases, including patent cases, in her tenure on the Federal Court. Will Gummow J have a challenger for his general dominance in IP matters on our High Court?

Congrats!
