CaseChat Overview and Summary
The applicant, Saje, brought proceedings against the Union for Progressive Judaism Inc. and other respondents, alleging contraventions of the *Sex Discrimination Act 1984* (Cth). The dispute centred on claims that the respondents had discriminated against the applicant on the grounds of sex and had unlawfully victimised her. The matter was heard by Judge Street.
The court was required to determine whether the respondents had engaged in unlawful discrimination against the applicant by reason of her sex, and whether they had unlawfully victimised her, as prohibited by the *Sex Discrimination Act 1984* (Cth).
Judge Street found that neither the alleged contravention of the Act nor the alleged unlawful victimisation was made out. Consequently, the application was dismissed.
