'The injustice is appalling': victims of Brisbane paedophile teacher pin compensation hopes on high court | Law (Australia)
Last modified on Wed 19 May 2021 02.12 EDT A victim of the prolific paedophile Kevin Lynch at Brisbane Grammar school is taking his case to the high court in a push to secure what advocates say is a fairer compensation deal for the abuse he suffered as a boy. The decision could open the way for dozens of other survivors to seek hundreds of thousands of dollars in new settlements from the school. But if the plaintiff, known as TRG, fails in his bid, other victims who signed binding deals many years ago may be unable to seek what would be now regarded as fair compensation.
