Victorian Consolidated Legislation

Federal Courts (State Jurisdiction) Act 1999 - SECT 12

Proceedings for contempt

12. Proceedings for contempt



If, before or after the commencement of this section, a person has-

   (a)  interfered with a right conferred or affected by section 6; or

   (b)  failed to satisfy or comply with a liability imposed or affected by
        section 6-

the interference or failure is, and is deemed always to have been, a matter
that can be dealt with in the same manner as if the interference or failure
had been in relation to a right conferred or affected, or a liability imposed
or affected, by an order of the Supreme Court.
