Courts Jurisdiction
Thank you for your letter dated 1 July 2008 addressed to the Hon.Rob Hulls MP, Attorney-General. He has requested that I respond on his behalf.
You have requested that the Attorney-General clarify the following issues:
1. Has the Victorian Parliament the proper legislated power to make laws for the Aboriginal people of Victoria, considering that the Victoria Constitution Act 1975 does not mention the Aboriginal race of Victoria
2. If the Court jurisdiction is question in the Magistrates Court,should the matter then be transferred to the Supreme Court of Victoria, to address the jurisdiction issue.
I note that vyou currenly have a matter before the Magistrates' Court.
The matters you raised are legal issues; neither the Attorney-General nor any public servant can provide you with legal advice about your mater.
May I suggest you contact one the Following agencies to seek legal advice and assistance.
