Rochford v Dayes

The parties before the High Court of Australia were Dennis Anthony Rochford, the appellant, and North Queensland Bacon Co Pty, the respondent. The dispute concerned an objection to the competency of an appeal.

The legal issue before the Court was whether the appeal should be dismissed.

The Court was informed by counsel for the respondent that the matter had been settled. By consent of the parties, Mason CJ ordered that the appeal be dismissed and that the appellant pay the respondent's costs of both the appeal and the motion.
