3. How many part heard matters are there in each of these jurisdictions?
This answer to this question is difficult to complete, because intermediate figures are not collected by the Courts. Statistics are compiled on the basis that matters that are filed/lodged, heard, adjourned, remanded and/or adjudicated upon and finalised by the handing down of a decision.Additionally to collect intermediate figures would be extremely difficult, having regard to the fact that there at least 15 different categories of "part-heards" for example CADAS, Griffith Bonds, case management processes, pre-sentencing reports, sentencing reports, assessments for suitability for Community Service Orders and DODA treatment orders. .
