What is a Matter Under Chapter III?

What is a Matter Under Chapter III?

hero
(CPD Guide: 1 PS) We welcome The Hon. Justice Shaun McElwaine, Federal Court of Australia, to speak on the topic of What is a Matter under Chapter III.
CPD: 1 point (PS, SL)
Format: Livestreamed and In-person (Hobart)
Recorded: Yes, subject to presenter consent


This seminar is presented by Justice Shaun McElwaine. 

What is a matter within federal jurisdiction? The answer has two important consequences. One, when is it impermissible for a State tribunal to determine a claim that raises a federal element? The other, just how broad is the jurisdiction of the Federal Court to determine claims that do not arise from specifically invested jurisdiction?

Develop an understanding of:
1. The constitutional limits of the jurisdiction of State tribunals;
2. The Constitutionally entrenched jurisdiction to review for jurisdictional error; and
3. The extent to which the Federal Court has broad general jurisdiction in civil disputes.
