Well, we'll get to all of this as we go through the ep.

Thank you for kind of giving us the speed run of all of it, and we can dive in and unpack all of them now.

Let's not

At the end, the end of the trial, I mean, it's actually the first ground of the appeal.

This was the fact that the jury, when they were sequestered, ended up in a hotel with the prosecution, the police and some of the media.

And this is, you know, just kind of emerged in the squeeze of the Morwell accommodation and Taralgon accommodation at the time with everything that was going on.

What is the issue here?

What is the kind of Aaron Patterson's defence pointing at or saying happened?

Yeah.

Do you have any idea how they'll check this?

Will they get the jury in and ask them questions about it?

Will they just sort of go through the various documents and what they already know and review that and make a decision based off of that?

Yeah.

I mean, most of the other grounds to me, again, this is the first appeal that I've kind of reported on or presented this podcast for at least.

They all seem like the sort of thing you would expect an appeal on.

And this one with the issue around the jury sequestering is the one that sort of stands out to me.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

There's a lot of other grounds to get through, Christian, so we'll run through some of them as well.

I mean, there's kind of a few bits of evidence or issue that the defence has taken with some of the evidence presented during the trial.

And this is around whether things should have been basically presented to the jury.
