...The High Court exercises both original jurisdiction (cases which originate in the High Court) and appellate jurisdiction (appeals made to the High Court from other courts). The High Court is the court of final appeal for the whole of Australia with the ability to interpret the common law for the whole of Australia, not just the state or territory in which the matter arose. This is unlike other high courts, such as the Supreme Court of the United States (though federal courts do have the ability to shape federal common law). As such, the court is able to develop the common law consistently across all of the states and territories. This role, alongside its role in constitutional interpretation, is one of the court's most significant. As Owen Dixon said on his swearing in as Chief Justice of Australia: Read full entry

High Court of Australia I had a court hearing in the
High Court of Australia, for a
special leave hearing to
appeal against the wrongful
conviction which grieved me. I
prepared my written speech for
the hearing in the limited 20
minutes argument time. I was
self represeted to criticise
judicial bias leading the
injustce, the errors of law
and wrongful conviction in my
written oral submission.
However, the High Court used
tricky tactics prevented me to
read my written submission to
the High Court putting my
submission to the Court and
the public fully. Then,
unethically stopped me citing
the doctrine of the precedent
about what I wanted to say
about the errors of law. Also
the High Court in a attemt to
stop me saying more criticism
by failing to comply with rule
of the High ourt using the
double standard of law against
me to deprive further 5
minutes argument time off me
that I entitled. Finally, the
High Court, substantially
altered and concealed many key
words relating these issues.
