Abstract

The article offers information on the High Court of Australia in Canberra. It states that the court had its first legal cases heard in 1903 despite the absence of a building where it was housed several years later. According to the author, former Australian chief justice Sir Garfield Barwick led the relocation of the court to the Industrial Arbitration Commission building from Melbourne, Victoria.
