Presumably she could be done for making a false/malicious complaint to police, this on top of whatever fraud she could be proven to have committed in the past. Probably victims would need to want to press charges.

I'd guess Josh will cut his losses and move on.

The NRL must be breathing a sigh of relief they didn't have impose the NFSD on this one. What is it now? Semi, SKD, JRey all falsely accused.

(1) A person who by any deception dishonestly obtains for himself or another any financial advantage is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to level 5 imprisonment (10 years maximum).

Maximum 10 years eh. From that it appears she just scrapes in from being stood down by Todd.

What about "herself"? Or "their self"?

But if the particulars are wrong, then the police will have to amend the application re her name or get another statement from her addressing the name issue. It would definitely need attention. I don't know if it's a fatal issue - but on first principles, the police need to establish the basic elements. I don't think Froggy is necessarily wrong. They are my submissions such as they are.

That's better.

The prosecution would need to have the indictment amended for the sake of corrwctness, but it never got to that point. And it's an amendment that can be made at any point before conviction.

Clearly, as the matter was withdrawn before that issue was raised, it wasn't withdrawn because of it. Which shows that Frog is actually completely wrong and talking complete shit like he usually does.

So for all the legal eagles - professional, amateur enthusiast or just watched a little Matlock in your day - what happens to this scumbag Arabella Del Aliases?

Maybe, it would depend on what evidence exists.

The police would need to prove, almost 100%, that her statement was false. It's not as simple as saying that what she alleged Josh did couldn't be proven, amounts to providing a false statement.

*The following is not directed towards, or in direct response to AJB1102. Last Week apologies for any feelings that may have been hurt.*

People seem to have a misconception about these sorts of things. Just because a court finds a person not guilty, doesn't mean that the person who made the allegation, was lying. It's very much not the case.

It's just that there wasn't enough evidence to satisfy a judge, jury or magistrate, to prove the offence beyond reasonable doubt.

that means i could play origin for any state. nice
Not sure about that as NSW only does changes of names for people born in NSW. If you were born outside of NSW you get sent back to that state or territory. If you were born overseas you get a change of change certificate

I asked a question and you replied "maybe" like I suggested something.

I got nothing to do with that rant.

T-Boon: early and accurate as usual.

I appreciate this.
I am going to need all the support I can get over the next few weeks while I drop a bunch of brilliant rule change threads (BRCTs) leading into the season that are going to be met with the usual ridicule even though they are awesome ideas.

One party not even providing their proper name isn’t going to get them far regardless of guilt. Throw in the history of lying and it was a shot case even before you get into the events of what has or hasn’t happened

Wrong offence.
There were some allegations of Centrelink fraud using faked medical records.

Also the dead mother con, though not sure if that would be a civil or criminal matter? The one bloke in Queensland took a claim to the CAT for her to repay the $8000 odd he gave her for multiple funerals. She didn't show up to contest the claim.
