Hickey, B. and Scott, M.J.

The Full Court of the Federal Court of Australia, comprising Evatt C.J., Nygh and Burton JJ., considered a dispute between B. Hickey and M.J. Scott. The precise nature of the dispute is not detailed in the provided text, but it involved a matter brought before this appellate court.

The central legal issues before the Full Court were not explicitly stated in the provided text. However, given the composition of the court and the context of an appeal, it is likely that the court was required to review a decision of a lower court and determine whether any errors of law or fact had occurred.

The reasoning of the court and the legal principles applied are not discernible from the limited text provided. The judgment of Evatt C.J., Nygh and Burton JJ. would have addressed the specific arguments raised by the parties and applied relevant Australian legal principles to the facts of the case.

The final orders or outcome of the appeal are not available from the provided excerpt.
