This matter concerned the amended statement of claim pursuant to the judgment in Botha v George Weston Foods Limited Trading as Tip Top Bakeries (Chullora) [2019] FCCA 3700 where the applicant alleged the respondent employer contravened s.340 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) by failing to renew a fixed-term contract. The respondent claimed the amended statement of claim contained “a number of vague and generalised alleged facts which make the pleadings generalised and ambiguous and which would force the Respondent to effectively craft the Applicant’s case in its Defence”.
Kristi Riedel appeared for the Applicant, instructed by WWC Lawyers.
