Back to EpisodesReynolds Mediates with Commonwealth over Higgins Payout
Description
Former Senator Linda Reynolds is heading to mediation with the Australian Commonwealth and its lawyers to settle her lawsuit against them over a $2.4 million compensation payout to Brittany Higgins. Reynolds claims negligence in the payout process, alleging she was not given the chance to respond to allegations against her. The payout followed Higgins public claims of being raped in Reynolds office by Bruce Lehrmann, who denies the accusations. The National Anti-Corruption Commission has cleared the government of wrongdoing. Reynolds lawyer hopes for honest talks, but the case could proceed to full trial if necessary.
