Steve Butcher and Maris Beck, "Journalists appeal in bid to protect sources", The Age 2/5/2013:
The grounds of appeal announced on Monday state Justice Sifris erred in not finding Mr Goldberg was wrong in failing to set aside the summonses.
Five negatives. Degree of difficulty: E. Judges' score: 9.6.
I believe that this one comes out right, as a bit more of the context helps to verify:
Mr Goldberg had earlier ruled subpoenas compelling the journalists to give evidence in a bribery case had a legitimate forensic purpose.
The journalists then sought a review of that decision to Justice Michael Sifris in the Supreme Court who ruled the magistrate had "acted properly and within jurisdiction".
The grounds of appeal announced on Monday state Justice Sifris erred in not finding Mr Goldberg was wrong in failing to set aside the summonses.
Overall, an impressive performance.
