The first forensics or legal autopsy was requested by a judge in Bologna in 1302. The examination is done to determine the cause of to identify or describe the level of disease that the person may have had, or define whether a specific medical or surgical treatment has been effective. This procedure is done by a trained medical personnel with a purpose of finding the cause of death with an assistance of autopsy technicians and autopsy photographers.

...Over the last decade, Australian courts have vigorously debated over the existence, formulation, and consequences of the implied term of mutual trust and confidence, in the context of employment contracts. The decision in Commonwealth Bank of Australia v Barker [2013] FCAFC 83 (‘Barker’) has granted some clarification in this area, with the majority confirming that a term of mutual trust and confidence can be implied into all contracts of employment, unless the term would be inconsistent with the express terms of the contract. The decision has created implications for employers who must review the terms of their employment contracts and reconsider their pre-termination processes, and doubt relating to the scope and operation of the term. Facts: Mr Barker was employed as an executive manager at Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA); he had a considerable period of service with the bank. In 2009, the CBA undertook a nationwide restructure of its corporate financial services unit, causing Mr Barker’s position made redundant. Its redeployment policy was to reallocate employees to a suitable position where possible, however the banks HR manual provided that the policy did not ‘form any part of an employee’s contract of employment’. Mr Barker was informed that his position had become redundant and he was told that his employment would be dismissed in one month if another position was not found within CBA. On his notification of redundancy, Mr Barker was told to clear his desk...

The strong revenue growth was largely attributable to higher income from The Met condominium development in Thailand as well as stronger contributions from the Group’s hotels & resorts in Singapore, the Maldives and Bali. Consequently, the Group’s profit before income tax and fair value adjustments to investment properties increased by 28.2% to $94.3 million from $73.5 million last year. Group borrowings increased, mainly due to further contributions towards the Group’s 22.5% share of the remaining acquisition cost for the Farrer Court site, as well as payment of development expenditure for The Met condominium in Thailand. This resulted in corresponding increases in investment in associates and development properties. Trade receivables also increased, mainly...
