Children's District Court Appeals - Adult Applicants Legal aid is available for appeals by parents, guardians or people with a special interest in the child to the District Court from a Magistrate's decision. A grant of aid is subject to Means Test A and Merit Test A. Representation An application may be determined by granting legal aid on condition that a Commission salaried solicitor, a Community Legal Centre or a nominated private practitioner conducts the matter regardless of the source of the application. There is no right of appeal to a Legal Aid Review Committee against a decision to provide aid on an inhouse basis (see ss34(4A) and 56(1AA) of the Legal Aid Commission Act 1979) |
