A mother accused of stabbing her private school graduate son has scored a minor legal victory at her first court appearance since making bail.
Samantha Palmer allegedly attacked her son, Hugo Ball, 22, with a 12-inch knife at the family s $3.1million mansion in Sydney s Bellevue Hill at 1.30am on November 21.
Ball had just arrived home at the family s sprawling Drumalbyn Road home about 1.30am on Saturday, November 21, and she was angry he allegedly broke curfew.
