The brief of evidence against former NSW MP Daryl Maguire and his co-accused in an alleged visa fraud is 13 gigabytes and would cost $17,000 just to print, their lawyers say.
Maguire, 63, allegedly conspired with migration agent Maggie Ning Logan to breach the migration act between January 2013 and August 2015.He faces jail time or a maximum fine of $34,000.
Logan was hit with 28 new charges on Monday night, her lawyer William Vahl told the Downing Centre Local Court on Tuesday. “The [court attendance notices] are not adequately particularised, these new ones, such that it’s possible to understand the case my client’s required to meet,” Vahl said.Crown prosecutor Liam MacAndrews said it was “being filed last night”.He is also facing difficulties preparing for the case, unable to access his client’s phone because the Independent Commission Against Corruption still has it, he told the court.
“While an electronic copy of the brief of evidence has been served and that’s helpful, there hasn’t been a hard copy,” Vahl said.Magistrate Susan HoranHarrowell said the brief was “substantial”.The pair requested the Crown provide a hard copy on Tuesday.“The brief has been served in electronic form. Is that how the DPP serves its briefs these days?” Horan asked.Horan made no formal order and told the parties to work it out between themselves.
