			=== How to change the heading styles ===

			The styles are stored in the MediaWiki system page:

			<pre>
			MediaWiki:Common.css
			</pre>

			This is a wiki page stored in the database. It is not a normal CSS file inside the website folder and should not normally be changed through FTP.

			To update it:

			# Log in to the wiki with an account that has permission to edit interface pages.
			# Open [[MediaWiki:Common.css]].
			# Click '''Edit'''.
			# Save a backup copy of the existing CSS.
			# Replace or modify the CSS rules.
			# Add an edit summary, such as <code>Update heading styles</code>.
			# Click '''Save page'''.
			# Purge the cache by opening:
			#:<pre>https://roadtrafficinjury.net/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Common.css&action=purge</pre>

	~~Hastwell v Harmers Workplace Lawyers [2023] NSWSC 654~~		===== Hastwell v Legal Services Commissioner [2019] NSWSC 1224 (22 March 2019) =====

	The plaintiff, himself a lawyer, sued a law firm alleging professional negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, and breach of contract in the handling of his employment-related claim. The Court considered whether the pleadings adequately identified the alleged breaches, risks of harm, and claimed psychiatric injuries. Leave was granted to amend the statement of claim, although parts relating to anxiety and certain statutory allegations were struck out.

	In this procedural ruling, the Court rejected the plaintiff's attempt to tender correspondence from early 2019 to infer a conflict of interest from the Commissioner's refusal to answer questions about Freemasonry. Court held that the material was not relevant because it was not contemporaneous with the 2018 decisions under review and note that a Jones v Dunkel inference cannot be drawn from a complete absence of evidence.

	The Court issued a procedural ruling rejecting the self-represented plaintiff's application to cross-examine the Legal Services Commissioner regarding alleged "association bias" related to the Freemasons. Campbell J ruled that the plaintiff's subjective anxieties lacked any factual foundation or logical connection to a deviation from lawful decision-making, rendering the proposed questions legally inadmissible under section 192A of the Evidence Act 1995.

	The plaintiff sought judicial review of the Commission's decision not to investigate his complaint against a psychiatrist who diagnosed him with a delusional disorder during a medico-legal consultation. Rothman J dismissed the summons, holding that the Commission did not owe a duty of procedural fairness to the complainant at the assessment stage, any initial unfairness was cured by the internal review process, and the psychiatrist was legally entitled to exercise clinical judgment.

	The Court of Appeal dismissed Mr. Hastwell’s application to review the Legal Services Commissioner's decision to discontinue investigating certain disciplinary complaints against his former lawyers. The court affirmed that the professional disciplinary system does not create private rights for complainants, meaning the Commissioner's discretionary decisions are not subject to judicial review as they do not alter the applicant's legal rights.

	In the first-instance proceeding before the Supreme Court, Justice Cavanagh summarily dismissed Mr. Hastwell’s lawsuit against psychiatrist Dr. Julian Parmegiani for alleged negligence in preparing a medico-legal report. The court ruled that because the specialist was retained under the Expert Witness Code of Conduct for a potential dispute, he enjoyed absolute witness immunity, making the claim untenable.
