Attorney-General for the State of Queensland v Warry

The respondent, Warry, applied to the Supreme Court of Queensland for the cancellation of a Division 3 order in relation to his conviction for one count of maintaining an unlawful sexual relationship with a child and 10 counts of unlawful carnal knowledge, committed in 2006. The Attorney-General for the State of Queensland opposed the application, arguing that Warry continued to present a serious danger to the community in the absence of such an order. The court was required to determine whether Warry presented as a serious danger to the community in the absence of a Division 3 order.

The court considered the relevant statutory provisions and the evidence presented by both parties. It examined Warry's criminal history, his offending behaviour, and the risk he posed to the community. The court also considered expert evidence and the submissions made by both parties. The court concluded that Warry's criminal history and offending behaviour demonstrated a high risk of reoffending and that he continued to pose a serious danger to the community in the absence of a Division 3 order.

In light of the above, the court dismissed Warry's application for the cancellation of the Division 3 order. The court found that Warry continued to present as a serious danger to the community and that the order was necessary to protect the public. The court made an order in the terms of the draft, which was initialled and placed with the file.
