Lawyer X’s Final Legal Loss | Perth News
Description
Nicola Gobbo’s latest legal bid hit a wall as the Court of Appeal denied her appeal, tossing out her $800K claim against Victoria state over alleged police grooming. Despite arguing cops exploited her ties to underworld figures like Tony Mokbel, the court ruled exposure risk was inherent in her choice to be an informant — a stance reinforced after her “Lawyer X” identity was exposed in 2019. The judges didn’t elaborate, but ordered her to pay the state’s legal costs, adding another twist to a saga that’s already shaken hundreds of convictions and turned her into a symbol of the murky line between justice and betrayal.
