Defamation

Australian Legal Information Institute
Type in 'Defamation' in the Search box. The main disadvantage of this site is that there is too much information to dip into without some prior knowledge of the area, such as knowing that the Theophanus, Nationwide, Cassidy and similar cases are significant. Also, there is almost no information on defamation in Queensland.
