Dear Mr Werner

VICTORIAN SUPREME COURT PROCEEDINGS 9665 OF 2007, 9263 AND 10222 OF 2008 AND 3731 AND
3766 OF 2009 : FOUR SEPARATE APPLICATIONS FOR LEGAL AID FUNDING

1. I refer to my two facsimiles of Tuesday of this week underscoring the public interest (and indeed the interest
of the Federal Government (communicated via the Hon Robert McLelland) and the Federal Opposition
(communicated via the Hon Malcolm Turnbull) in Victoria Legal Aid granting my four (at present) separate
legal aid funding applications.
2. I attach another bundle of correspondences of 10 and 11 November 2009 further underscoring the
overwhelming global, national, state and municipal public interest grounds for Victoria Legal Aid to provide
funds for all aspects of these proceedings.
3. In the face of all of this 'overwhelming' I look forward to receiving four approvals of legal aid funding within
the first couple of days of next week.

Regards

JAMES JOHNSON
