Federal Circuit Court of Australia
Manousaridis J, docket Judge of the FCC proceedings, was a former solicitor at Nestlé lawyers King & Wood Mallesons and a former partner at Post’s lawyers Baker McKenzie who were acting for Post in its acquisition of PowerBar + Musashi from Nestlé, with the case being the first trademark matter ever heard by Manousaridis J.
The FCC proceedings interfered with the timing of closing the acquisition of PowerBar + Musashi and the Post unconditional guaranteed buyer’s obligation agreement that stated:
The stock and asset purchase agreement may be terminated by mutual consent of the parties and under certain other circumstances, including if the closing of the acquisition has not occurred prior to 3 November 2014.
JUDGE MANOUSARIDIS CONSPIRED & CRIMINALLY INTERFERED WITH THE COMMONWEALTH COURTS PORTAL
Manousaridis J conspired to facilitate Post closing the acquisition prior to 3 November 2014 by fraudulently causing the FCC proceedings to be displayed as finalised on the CCP from 17 October–28 October 2014 in combination with Yates J stopping the Christian appeal from commencing in the Federal Court proceedings by Yates J conspiring to provide a 42-day stoppage from 16 September–28 October 2014 in the granting of the application for leave to appeal for Post to conceal the legal proceedings exposing violations of U.S. antitrust laws.
Christian sent an email with a screen-save attachment to the Sydney Registry raising the issue of the CCP fraud and received a reply email contradicting the CCP fraudulent finalised status and advising that the FCC proceedings were not finalised at that time with the Duty Registrar email to Christian stating:
A check of our CCP from the Court Registry does not reveal that this matter has been finalised as at 17 October 2014. Our version of the CCP for this matter shows there is no finalised date.
Christian emailed the Associate of Manousaridis J, with a screen-save attachment showing the fake CCP finalised status and the Associate advised that the matter would be dealt with at a hearing listed for 19 December 2014. At the hearing on 19 December 2014 Manousaridis J stated:
“Don’t you worry about that Mr Christian, just worry about the orders I make.”
