Abstract

The common law has been described by judges and legal writers in Australia in different, and sometimes inconsistent, ways. Some, like Inglis Clark, Justice Priestley and Anstey Wynes, have maintained that it is, by and large, State law.Some who accept that view believe there is, in addition, a smaller area that can be described as federal or Commonwealth common law.2
