Court appoints Toben barrister
Peter KohnTHE Federal Court of Australia has appointed a barrister to represent South Australian Holocaust-denier Dr Fredrick Toben.
On September 24, the Federal Court in Sydney will hear a complaint by the Executive Council of Australian Jewry (ECAJ) that Dr Toben flouted the court’s September 2002 order not to post Holocaust-denial material on the website of his Adelaide Institute.
The Federal Court’s 2002 order was imposed after a landmark victory by the ECAJ against him.
Since proceedings were launched in the Federal Court in January, Dr Toben has said he has been unable to find legal representation. Previously he had engaged a lawyer who was later found to have had his practising certificate temporarily suspended.
