McLoughlin v Randstad Pty Ltd and Ors (No.2)

In *McLoughlin v Randstad Pty Ltd and Ors (No.2)*, Judge Street of the Supreme Court of New South Wales considered an application by the plaintiff, McLoughlin, for the transfer of proceedings to the Federal Court of Australia. The application was opposed by the defendants, Randstad Pty Ltd and others.

The central legal issue before the Court was whether the plaintiff had established a proper basis for the transfer of the proceedings from the Supreme Court of New South Wales to the Federal Court of Australia.

Judge Street dismissed the application, finding that the plaintiff had failed to demonstrate that a transfer was warranted. The Court concluded that no sufficient grounds had been made out to justify the removal of the case from the Supreme Court to the Federal Court.

Consequently, the application filed on 3 July 2020 was dismissed.
