Snippits from the Melbourne Age 6/5/08 Carol Nader
SERIOUS cases involving Aboriginal offenders that will be heard by
Australia's first Koori County Court, to be set up in Victoria by the
end of the year,....The court will remain a sentencing court that
deals with people who have pleaded guilty, in the same way existing
Koori magistrates courts operate...A spokeswoman for Attorney-General
Rob Hulls said that while the Chief Judge of the County Court and
others would be consulted to finalise what offences the court would
deal with....
Deputy Chief Magistrate Jelena Popovic, co-ordinator of the Koori
court at the Magistrates Court, said the Koori court was an excellent
way to give Aborigines a voice in the justice system...What people
generally don't understand about the Koori court is that it is a
sentencing court, so we aren't reinventing the wheel or creating
different justice

Courts of Aboriginal people, the answer being, The Victorian
Government has no proper legislated Act to make Laws for the
Aboriginal people of Victoria, see (http://bebuybac.blogspot.com) as
the question of juristiction is now open to question, "U" be the Judge
