Welcome to the 2023 edition of The Full Bench, crafted by our fantastic UTS LSS Education Portfolio!

Our 2023 edition of The Full Bench addresses the topic “Uncharted Legal Territories”. The publication brings together a collection of thought-provoking student submissions that deal with a wide variety of areas unaddressed by our legal system. Each piece deals with a discrete and relevant legal issue that the law is attempting to keep up with, including intellectual property, migration and refugee law, defamation, money laundering, and Indigenous Australian copyright. Each student has provided an insightful and detailed analysis into how the law can best adapt to address these issues. The caliber of these submissions truly reflects the fantastic hands the future of the legal profession is in.

This fantastic publication would not have been possible without the incredible dedication of our large Education (Publications) team who have worked tirelessly to develop a publication of such a high standard. I would like to extend a huge thank you to our Education (Publications) Director, Alexander Chan, with support from our wonderful Vice-President (Education), Peter Markopoulos. I would also like to thank our fantastic Education (Publications) subcommittee for their teamwork and cooperation in assisting in the preparation of this publication.

Finally, a huge congratulations and thank you to our wonderful student contributors. The Full Bench would not exist without your creative minds and support of the LSS. Thank you for your efforts.

Enjoy reading!
