UPDATED ANNUALLY

Uniform Evidence Law is an annual publication, ensuring customers have the most updated text on the market.  This currency combines with the unchallenged authority of Stephen Odgers’ commentary to provide the premium product on uniform evidence law. The affordable price ensures access to this best-value treatment.

NEW TO THE 21st EDITION

Legal developments are thoroughly considered.

Matters considered in High Court judgments include:

  • s 55 - pre-trial distress of a complainant (The King v Ryan Churchill (a pseudonym) [2025] and The King v Tsalkos [2025])
  • s 97 - significance of tendency contended for, in assessing probative value (The King v AR [2026])
  • s 141 - proof of tendency (The King v AR [2026])
  • s 184 - formal admission of facts in criminal proceedings (BQ v The King [2024])

Appellate and lower court judgments have been distilled and incorporated into the work. Key matters addressed include:

  • s 38 - application of provision must avoid unfairness (Singh v The King [2025])
  • s 41 - improper cross-examination (Gardiner v R [2026])
  • s 46 - rule in Browne v Dunn (Karout v New South Wales Crime Commission [2025])
  • s 97 - reasonable notice of intention to present tendency evidence (Wright v R [2025]) & a “use rule” (Al-Sheikh v R [2025])
  • s 110 - directions to a jury about evidence of good character (Neil v R [2025]) &  rebutting evidence of good character (Robertson v Director of Public Prosecutions; Director of Public Prosecutions v Robertson [2026])
  • s 128 - a witness “objects” (Page v Conneely, in the matter of Shyzi Pty Ltd [2025])
  • s 128A - appropriate procedure for objection (Lawrence & Hanson Group Pty Ltd v Slade (No 2) [2025])
  • s 135 - procedural unfairness (Quarter Turn Pty Ltd v Reinteractive Pty Ltd (No 5) [2026]) & excluding hearsay representations by accused because of unfair prejudice to prosecution (Rowan (a pseudonym) v The King [2026])
  • s 137 - whether directions to a jury will cure unfair prejudice (Portea v The King [2025]) & real danger of impermissible coincidence reasoning (Maurice Hawell v R; Andrew David v R; Marius Hawell v R [2025])
  • s 141 - proper approach to defence evidence (Ellingford v R [2026])
  • s 164 - directions to a jury about “corroboration” (Justin Foster (a pseudonym) v The King [2025])
  • s 168 - leave to make a “request” (Kheir Group Pty Ltd v Panoramic Resources Ltd [2025])
  • s 178 - “adducing” an expert certificate (JS v Director of Public Prosecutions (NSW) [2026])

Legislative development include:

  • New Evidence Act 2025 (WA) adopting most of the substantive provisions of the uniform evidence legislation, with reference made to it in commentary on specific provisions. 

With its popular and highly accessible annotated legislation format, and comprehensive commentary, Uniform Evidence Law 21st Edition is the authoritative voice on evidence.
