Learn about horrendous crimes, unscrupulous criminals, and corrupt politicians and lawyers who control the legal profession in Australia. Shameful, hideous, and treacherous are just a few words that describe these lawbreakers.

Until the late 1990s, the Australian government entirely owned Australia’s telephone network and the communications carrier, Telecom (today privatised and called Telstra). Telecom held the monopoly on communications and let the network deteriorate into disrepair. Instead of our very deficient telephone services being fixed as part of our government-endorsed arbitration process that became an uneven battle we could never win, they were NOT fixed as part of the process, regardless of the hundreds of thousands of dollars it cost the claimants to mount their claims against Telstra. Crimes were committed against us, and our integrity was attacked and undermined. Our livelihoods were ruined, we lost millions of dollars and our mental health declined, yet those who perpetrated the crimes are still in positions of power, today. Our story is still actively being covered up.

Absent Justice - My Story - Alan Smith

How does one weave together a narrative so remarkable that it raises even the author’s eyebrows, prompting a detailed investigation of records before proceeding with the story? What strategies can we employ to unravel the intricate web of collusion that exists between an arbitrator, various governmental entities, and the defendants in this case? How can we illuminate the shocking reality that these defendants, during the arbitration process, intercepted and misappropriated confidential materials to fortify their defense, all the while jeopardizing the claimants' chances for justice?

Furthermore, how prevalent is the issue of compromised arbitration processes across Australia? Are instances of electronic eavesdropping and breaches of confidentiality still commonplace in the realm of legitimate Australian arbitrations today?

A particularly alarming example surfaced in January 1999, when a thorough report was delivered to the government, confirming that Telstra Corporation—which stood as the defendant in these arbitration disputes—had been unlawfully intercepting confidential arbitration-related documents. The report detailed a troubling procedure where these unauthorized individuals not only accessed sensitive information but meticulously screened the hacked documents for relevant content before re-faxing them to their original destinations, thus obscuring the illegal activities. This critical report, attached here as evidence (Open Letter File No/12 and File No/13), raises profound questions about the integrity of the arbitration system in Australia and the extent to which such unethical practices may have infiltrated legitimate processes, casting a shadow over the pursuit of fair and just resolutions.

Kangaroo Court - Absent Justice The hyperlink https://shorturl.at/5EALA and the https://shorturl.at/vFCzd the Kangaroo Court highlights a troubling trend of growing concern among both the Australian government and the media regarding the questionable operational practices used by the prominent "Big Four" accounting firms. The two segments of the Kangaroo Court presented on absentjustice.com serve as crucial reminders that the pressing concerns of corporate misconduct and governmental corruption remain relevant in 2024. These issues echo the struggles of the COT Cases, who faced intimidation and harassment from Telstra during critical arbitration discussions three decades ago. Despite their plight, the arbitrator and administrator failed to provide any meaningful support.

It raises a critical question: How can the arbitrator and administrator credibly address unlawful actions by Telstra when they secretly eliminated the $250,000 liability caps outlined in clauses 25 and 26 of the arbitration agreements (Refer to Part 2 → Chapter 5 Fraudulent Conduct? These agreements had been thoroughly reviewed and approved by two government officials and the claimant’s legal team, establishing a clear framework for the arbitration process showcased on absentjustice.com.

Moreover, how could they confront corruption issues involving Telstra while simultaneously allowing the Telecommunications Industry Office's arbitration special counsel to be completely exempt from any liability, as explicitly stated in the original arbitration agreement before any amendments?

Between 18 October 1995 and 4 October 1997, I worked with Mr John Wynack, Director of Investigations for the Commonwealth Ombudsman, to request a copy of Telstra's arbitration file under the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act. This file was crucial as it would reveal who was involved in altering clause 24 and removing clauses 25 and 26 from my arbitration agreement. Additionally, it would provide insight into when AUSTEL received the Portland/Cape Bridgewater logbook. Notably, Home Page File No/82 confirms that Mr. Wynack did not believe Telstra's claim about destroying the file.

Who We Are

The fax imprint across the top of this letter dated 12 May 1995 (Open Letter File No 55-A) is the same as the fax imprint described in the 7 January 1999 Scandrett & Associates report provided to Senator Ron Boswell (see Open Letter File No/12 and File No/13), confirming faxes were intercepted during the COT arbitrations. One of the two technical consultants attesting to the validity of this January 1999 fax interception report emailed me on 17 December 2014, stating:

“I still stand by my statutory declaration that I was able to identify that the incoming faxes provided to me for review had at some stage been received by a secondary fax machine and then retransmitted, this was done by identifying the dual time stamps on the faxes provided.” (Front Page Part One File No/14)

‘Absent Justice’

The book "Absent Justice" delves into the widespread corruption within the government bureaucracy that tainted the Casualties of Telstra (COT) government-endorsed arbitrations. It exposes the individuals responsible for the serious wrongdoings committed by the arbitrator and the defendants who took part in these arbitrations. It also sheds light on their positions within Australia’s establishment during these illegal acts and the legal system that allowed these injustices to remain unresolved.

This deceitful behaviour is a form of betrayal, reminiscent of a Judas kiss involving secret dealings and betrayal. Such conduct, marked by dishonesty and deceit, fosters a corrupt environment and is tantamount to, if not worse than, double-dealing and deceiving those who trust the government. It represents pure malevolence.

When individuals misuse the law or legal threats to coerce and intimidate others, it leads to legal abuse or bullying. This type of dishonest behaviour often originates from public officials in Australia. (refer to https://shorturl.at/c6BgN).

“…the very large number of persons that had been forced into an arbitration process and have been obliged to settle as a result of the sheer weight that Telstra has brought to bear on them as a consequence where they have faced financial ruin if they did not settle…”
