Someone want to explain to me why the person protected by the AVO cannot have it removed if she or he so pleases??

If the police made the application for the AVO, only they can cancel the application. If you decide that you do not want an AVO that the police have applied for, you should contact:
  • The police officer who applied for the AVO, or
  • The Police Domestic Violence Liaison Officer, or
  • The Police Prosecutor;
to discuss you concerns with them.

at this stage the avo is only in the interim stage. there are no permanent orders. bird and anyone who support his cause are free to argue the interim orders should not be made permanent.

Kneeing Shane Martene-the cowardly act of a true grub ( he got 10 weeks).

How Bird thinks he should appear in public whilst awaiting serious court proceedings.
Ugly designer shirt, some empty crownies, plate of nuts and a wry grin. Nice PR.

Even if he's innocent of the charges etc ....he should be punished for his stupidity.

not to mention the interim orders can be varied.

In this way:

73 [FONT=Arial,Helvetica]Variation or revocation of final apprehended violence orders and interim court orders[/FONT]
(1) The court may, if satisfied that in all the circumstances it is proper to do so, vary or revoke a final apprehended violence order or interim court order.​
(2) In particular, a final apprehended violence order or interim court order may be varied under this section in any one or more of the following ways:
(a) by extending or reducing the period during which the order is to remain in force,​
(b) by amending or deleting any prohibitions or restrictions specified in the order,​
(c) by specifying additional prohibitions or restrictions in the order.​
(3) The court may decline to hear an application for variation or revocation of a final apprehended violence order or interim court order if the court is satisfied that there has been no change in the circumstances on which the making of the order was based and that the application is in the nature of an appeal against the order.​
(4) A final apprehended violence order or interim court order is not to be varied or revoked on the application of the defendant unless notice of the application has been served on each protected person to whom the order relates.​
(5) A final apprehended violence order or interim court order is not to be varied or revoked on the application of the applicant for the original order or protected person unless notice of the application has been served on the defendant.​
(6) Notice of an application must be served personally or in such other manner as the court hearing the application directs.​
(7) Despite subsection (5), the court may make an order extending the period during which the final apprehended violence order or interim court order is to remain in force without notice of the relevant application having been served on the defendant, if the applicant lodged the application before the day on which the apprehended violence order or interim court order is due to expire.​
(8) If an application for the extension of a final apprehended violence order or interim court order is made before the order expires, the order is taken to continue in force until the application is dealt with by the court.​
(9) Unless sooner revoked, an order extended under subsection (7) ceases to have effect 21 days after the order extending it is made or on an earlier date specified in the order extending it. However, further orders may be made from time to time under that subsection before the extended order ceases to have effect.​

Like this is it?

A defendant in application proceedings may defend the action and any proceedings ancillary to the action.​

Heaven forbid a guy enjoying watching his team win a semi final, you know the team he was part of and helped get there.

Martene FFS how was that little love tap any different to the numerous elbows and shoulders to the head we see every season.

No in this instance the police applied for the AVO, only they can apply to revoke or vary it.

Yes Marteene was in so much pain and reeling in agony that he got up off the ground and scored a try 3 minutes later. Yes Bird thrusting the knee was dumb, but marteene should of got 5 weeks for the dive. But justice prevailed, Marteene being the usual Souths standard player, quickly folded like a cheap suit and disappeared into oblivion.

He doesnt look like a guy facing serious charges, the media have blown this up as they would have, it doesnt help him, it doesnt help the club and the sponsers wouldnt have liked it either. He could watched it on TV.

Marteene blames Bird for the premature end to his career. Nuff said.

incorrect. the current orders are only interim and expire at the next court date. Bird has every right to contest the orders being made permanent. A hearing date will be listed to hear all the arguments for and against.

Well they are deadset stupid too. If thats how they manage their P.R then I'm glad Ive bought my last 5 cars from one of their competitors Tory Toyota.

I think Bird should play, I dont know if he is guilty or innocent, I think the AVO should be lifted if the babe wants out of it, but beyond all that, Bird is a nuffy loser and thick as two planks.
