If he wins, he could succeed in getting a suppression order lifted on text messages between Jo Dyer and ABC figures. He could also avoid paying Dyer's legal costs of bringing the court action to get barrister Sue Chrysanthou SC taken off his case @australian

Christian Porter & the ABC were competing so hard on Mon to claim victory they forgot to name the clearest winner. Scott Morrison wins from an outcome that keeps the former A-G out of the courts on an allegation he raped a woman in 1988 From @CroweDM theage.com.au/politics/feder…
Everyone claims victory, yet the clear winner is the PM

Everyone claims victory, yet the clear winner is the PM

Scott Morrison and the Coalition would have paid the price if Christian Porter’s defamation case against the ABC had dragged on and overlapped the next federal election campaign.

Many marbles lost on this forum today. Porter & the ABC agreed on terms on which the claim would be withdrawn. That is usually known as a settlement. There was no apology, the article was not taken down, but a note added. There is to be $$ paid, believed to be six figures

Judgment could be delivered late tomorrow in the case to decide whether Christian Porter's high-profile barrister should be stopped from acting for him. Federal Court judge Tom Thawley says his preference is to deliver it "ex tempore", or on the spot, after case closes tmrw
