According to Bruce Lehrmann’s lawyer Zali Burrows, he is “arguably Australia’s most hated man”.

Burrows also told a federal court that her client is too “scared” to attend court, and his reputation has been so tarnished that “the only shot he’d probably ever have in making money is by going on OnlyFans or something silly like that”.

Lehrmann has launched an appeal after a defamation trial judge ruled in favour of Network Ten, finding on the balance of probabilities that he raped Brittany Higgins at Parliament House.

His lawyer is arguing that Lehrmann shouldn’t have to pay $2 million to Network Ten until he’s had the chance to appeal the defamation case, but lawyers for Network Ten are arguing that Lehrmann should have to front up $200,000 in order to have the right to appeal at all.

Today, defamation lawyer at Good Company Law Hannah Marshall, on Bruce Lehrmann’s chance of appeal and what it means for Brittany Higgins.
