Mr. David Gonski AC

Chairman of Directors

ANZ Bank

ANZ Centre

10/833 Collins St
Melbourne VIC 3000

Dear Mr. Gonski.

The ANZ Bank and its directors, Silent in the face of Overt Corruption.

By individually addressed registered mail of 20^th August 2015 I wrote to each director of the ANZ Bank, including yourself.

In that letter I provided unequivocal evidence of flagrant criminal and corrupt conduct and in particular that in 2006 Justice Robert Osborn fabricated Reasons for Judgment which were contrived to deny and conceal the flagrant fraudulent circumstances of and surrounding the 1989 mortgagees sale of my land by MCL Finance P/L which at that time was a subsidiary of the ANZ Bank.

Those fraudulent circumstances included the crass fraud and conspiracy which was accurately described in the Victorian Parliament by Max McDonald MLA. MCL Finance and I were joint victims of that fraud.

Osborn’s purpose was to deny and conceal that in 1988, MCL’s solicitor, John Norman Price conspired with the now Major General Justice Greg Garde to pervert the course of justice by denying and concealing that crass fraud.

My previous letter strongly required that you and your fellow directors stand with me against that corrupt conduct. Neither the bank, yourself or any of the directors replied at all and each failed and effectively refused to stand against that overt corrupt conduct.

I have now published a you tube video entitled “ANZ Bank directors Silent in the face of overt corruption” That video sets out the crass fraud and the corrupt conduct and the fact of the silence of the bank, yourself and the other directors.

That video is available on my website http://courtsontrial.com. A screen capture from that video is immediately below.

I now demand that you and your fellow directors make authoritative statements as to the circumstances of and surrounding the 1989 mortgagee’s sale of my land.

My specific requirements of you are set out further below and after I summarise the things set out key aspects of the things set out in my earlier letter and in the abovementioned video.

In plain language the key parts of the matters and things set out in my earlier letter and in the abovementioned video are as follows.

• In the period 1984 to 1990 MCL was my mortgagee in respect of 18 allotments within the cluster subdivision registered number CS1134.
• In that entire period the predecessors to Macedon Ranges Shire Council and Coliban Water and the timeshare company Woodleigh Heights Resort Developments P/L fraudulently represented to the effect that pursuant to a Water Supply Agreement dated 1^st January 1982 water was provided to the timeshare company and that pursuant to the agreement the timeshare company controlled the water supply and reticulation system within the cluster subdivision registered number CS1134 and that I/my land could not have access to that water or reticulation system except with the consent of the timeshare company.
• They further represented that building permits for my land were dependant on my allotments being serviced by that water supply.
• Those representations were crassly and manifestly false and constituted a crass fraud which was manifestly not possible in fact, law, reason or morality.
  • That crass fraud relied on the palpably false representation in the so called Water Supply Agreement that the timeshare company was “owner or occupier” of the whole of the land comprising CS1134 which included my allotments.
  • That crass fraud made the offensive to law, reason and morality, assertion that the timeshare company, who was merely my Johnny-come-lately neighbour, controlled the water supply and water dependant building permits to my allotments.
• The known and demonstrated and apparently intended effect of that crass fraud was to render my land useless and valueless to anyone other than the timeshare company.
• That crass fraud was accurately described in the Victorian Parliament by Max McDonald MLA. Mr. McDonald described it as being a collusion between the council and water authority to deprive me of my democratic rights.
• On two occasions in 1984 my then first mortgagee, Australian Guarantee Corporation refused to sell my land in the circumstances of the crass fraud.
• In 1985, on two occasions, I refused to sell my land in the circumstances of the crass fraud.
• In the period at least 1987 to 1990 the solicitor John Norman Price was solicitor for MCL and was solicitor acting in respect of my default on the mortgage.
• At all times, initially as second mortgagee and then as first mortgagee, MCL and its solicitors and particularly John Norman Price were intimately aware of the fact of and the facts of and the known and demonstrated and apparently intended effect of the crass fraud.
• Incredibly, in knowledge that the timeshare company was party to the crass fraud, in 1987, MCL consented to John Norman Price acting for the timeshare company in an appeal before the then Victorian Administrative Appeals Tribunal.
  • The purpose of that appeal was to seek orders enabling the timeshare company to sell some if its allotments to mum and dad purchasers for ordinary residential use.
  • The fact known to John Norman Price and to MCL was that all allotments within CS1134 including the allotments the subject of the appeal were subject to the identical crass fraud regime as had prevented the use and sale of my allotments and had caused my default with MCL.
  • MCL and John Norman Price were intimately aware that that appeal could not succeed in the circumstances of the crass fraud known to them.
• MCL and John Norman Price were aware that I intended to make submissions to the Tribunal as to the crass fraud and that the so called Water Supply Agreements was manifestly unlawful and fraudulent in nature and effect and that the timeshare company could not demonstrate that prospective purchasers of the allotments the subject of the appeal would have lawful access to a water supply.
• MCL and John Norman Price were intimately aware that Price had an irreconcilable conflict of interest and could not concurrently act in the interest of MCL and of the timeshare company. MCL, as mortgagee of my land, was in fact a victim of the crass fraud which the timeshare company was party to.
• In knowledge of my proposed submission Price immediately acted to obtain Supreme Court orders giving MCL possession of my land.
  • There was no legitimate reason for taking formal possession of my land. My land was vacant land and no rents were receivable and it could not be reasonably sold in the circumstances of the crass fraud.
• On 7^th March 1988 John Norman Price conspired with the timeshare company and the then junior barrister, Lieutenant Colonel Greg Garde and the council and water authority and their solicitor, Ian Lonie, to deceive the Tribunal and pervert the course of justice by fraudulently misrepresenting the facts known to them and thereby corruptly conceal and deny the fact of and the facts of and the effect of the crass fraud and thereby obtain a wrongful decision of the Tribunal.
  • Under instruction from Price the written and signed submission of Garde fraudulently represented that the Water Supply Agreement was a lawful and enforceable agreement and was an agreement for the supply of water to “the estate”.
  • Price and Garde’s fraudulent misrepresentation could not stand and could not have been contemplated by them on the facts known to them, namely;
    • That to the exclusions of “the estate” the agreement was an agreement to provide water to the timeshare company who was defined as the consumer.
    • That the recitals of the agreement falsely represented that the timeshare company was “owner or occupier” of the whole of the land comprising the subdivision.
    • That the timeshare company was a newly incorporated company which never did “own or occupy” the whole of the land in the subdivision and which could not purport to enter into an agreement for the supply of water to “the estate” which included my land and which agreement also purported to give that company control of the common property reticulation system.
• Under instruction from the Council and Water Authority their solicitor, Ian Lonie, provided verisimilitude to Price and Garde’s fraudulent representations.
  • Ian Lonie fraudulently represented that the timeshare company was developer/subdivider of the cluster subdivision and that the timeshare company had been developer since 1976 and had subdivided and re-subdivided the land in accord with several planning permits issued in the period 1976 to 1980.
  • That fraudulent misrepresentation led the Tribunal to believe that the timeshare company, as developer/subdivider was “owner or occupier” of the whole of the land at the time that the Water Supply Agreement was entered into and led the Tribunal to believe that the agreement was an agreement between the subdivider and the Water Authority for the provision of water to “the estate”
• Under instructions from Price, Garde represented me to be a former owner and that I was a troublemaker who was in dispute with the timeshare company.
  • The representation that I was a former owner was only true because MCL had taken formal possession of my land.
  • The representations by Garde led the Tribunal to disregard my written submission which set out the flagrant unlawful and fraudulent nature of the Water Supply Agreement and that the timeshare company could not demonstrate that prospective purchasers of the allotments the subject of the appeal would have lawful access to water and water dependant building permits.
• Price and Garde and Lonie were intimately aware that the Water Supply Agreement was NOT an agreement for the provision of water to “the estate” which included my land.
  • Under the express terms of the so called agreement the agreement was an agreement to provide the timeshare company with water for use on land owned by it. The agreement defined the timeshare company as “the consumer”
  • Price had acted to take possession of my land in circumstances where water was denied to and not available to my land which was part of “the estate”.
  • Price was intimately aware that the timeshare company never had been “owner or occupier” of my land
• Relying on the fraudulent representations of Price, Garde and Lonie the Tribunal directed that permits issue to allow the sale of the subject land to unsuspecting mum and dad purchasers.
• Relying on the fraudulent representations of Price, Garde and Lonie the Tribunal disregarded my submission and the fraudulent water supply agreement and the crass fraud remained on foot.
• On the face of it, MCL and Price hopped into bed with the fraudster in the misguided hope or anticipation of obtaining some form of order which bypassed the crass fraud without exposing the fact of the crass fraud over the past several years.
• On 12^th October 1988 MCL obtained a market opinion from the licensed property valuer G. D. Sutherland P/L. That market opinion valued my land at essentially nothing because water was controlled by the timeshare company and was NOT available to my land except with agreement of the timeshare company
  • The report of G. D. Sutherland exactly restated the crass fraud.
  • That report demonstrated the truth of my submissions to the Tribunal
• The crass fraud remained on foot entirely as consequence of Price and Garde and Lonie conspiring to pervert the course of justice and deceiving the Tribunal by denying and concealing the crass fraud.
• Two years after taking formal possession of my land and In the circumstances of the ongoing crass fraud, by contract dated 30^th October 1989 MCL sold my land to Deckwood P/L
  • Deckwood P/L was a newly incorporated or enlivened company controlled by the children of Kenneth Raymond Buchanan.
  • Kenneth Raymond Buchanan was a director of the timeshare company and was a signatory to the so called water supply agreement.
  • John Norman Price acted in that sale on behalf of MCL
  • MCL did not advertise my land for sale, did not hold an auction and made no attempt to maximise offers and no attempt to sell to anyone other than Deckwood P/L
  • The sale price of $135,000 was a fraction of the true value of the land and reflected the fact of the ongoing crass fraud.
  • The vendor and purchaser were both intimately aware of the fact of and the facts of and the effect of the crass fraud.
  • That sale consummated the crass fraud known to vendor and purchaser.
  • At the time of the sale Buchanan was director of the successor timeshare company to Woodleigh Heights Resort Developments P/L and that successor suite of timeshare companies acquired my land from Deckwood P/L
  • In the hands of the timeshare company my land was immediately saleable for about $9,000,000 in timeshare portions and with a $40,000 house on each allotment.
• In 2005 I issued Supreme Court proceedings against Macedon Ranges Shire Council and Coliban Water seeking recovery of my losses sustained as a consequence of the sale of my land in the circumstances of the crass fraud.
• In that Supreme Court proceeding the then Major General Greg Garde QC was barrister for Coliban Water.
• My Statement of Claim alleged the crass fraud.
• My written submission to Justice Robert Osborn alleged that John Norman Price and the by then Major General Greg Garde QC had deceived the Tribunal in 1988 and if they had not deceived the tribunal then the losses on my land would not have occurred and that the hearing before Osborn would not be occurring.
• In obvious response to my allegations against him Garde made contrived and flagrantly false and otherwise irrelevant submissions to Osborn. Those submissions were identical in substance to the combined fraudulent misrepresentations of Price, Garde and Lonie which had been used in 1988 to deceive the Tribunal and deny and conceal the crass fraud.
• On 29^th November 2006 Justice Robert Osborn published Reasons for Judgment which were palpably contrived to deny and conceal the crass fraud and thereby deny and conceal the 1988 criminal conduct of Price and Garde and deny and conceal the circumstances of the sale of my land by MCL.
  • Each and every substantive paragraph was flagrantly false and contrived to provide verisimilitude to one another and which flew in the face of the facts, and law known to him and also flew in the face of reason, they were nothing more than a string of bald faced interdependent crass lies. Even Osborn’s footnotes were fabricated.
• In different words Osborn’s Reasons repeated the flagrantly false 1988 submissions of Price, Garde and Lonie before the Tribunal.
  • Of present relevance;
    • At his paragraph 74 Osborn said that the timeshare company wished to compel me to sell my land back to it.
    • At his paragraph 147 Osborn said “…… the documentary evidence confirms, a reticulated potable water supply was in fact connected to the subdivision by the Water Board in 1982, but not extended to the plaintiffs’ allotments.”
    • At his paragraph 148 Osborn said; “It was this latter water supply to which the plaintiffs were denied access…..”
    • At his paragraph 148 Osborn also said that denial of that water formed my claim in an earlier Supreme Court proceeding.
    • At his paragraph 166 Osborn said that the water supply agreement was for the supply of water to the whole of the subdivision.
    • At his paragraph 167 Osborn said that he accepted my submission that the agreement was for the supply of water to the subdivision.
    • At his paragraph 18 Osborn said; “…. a dispute arose as to the withholding of reticulated water supply from the plaintiffs’ land, by the subdivider. Such water was supplied by the Water Board to this subdivision in 1982.”
• By those paragraphs Osborn fraudulently represented;
  • That the water supply agreement was a lawful agreement which provided for the lawful supply of water to the whole subdivision including to my land.
  • That I had submitted that the agreement was for the supply of water to the whole of the subdivision, including to my land.
  • That pursuant to that agreement the water supply was connected to the subdivision in 1982.
  • That water was not available to my land because the water supply was not extended to my land.
  • That the water supply was not extended to my land constituted denial of that water.
  • That I had previously sued alleging entitlement to that water supply.
  • That I had purchased my land from the timeshare company which then wished to compel me to sell my land back to it.
  • That the timeshare company was the subdivider.
• By those paragraphs;
  • Osborn denied and concealed the crass fraud known to him.
  • Osborn exactly repeated the substance of the 1988 misrepresentations of Price, Garde and Lonie and made them appear as true and correct submissions.
  • Osborn denied and concealed that in 1988 Price, Garde and Lonie had deceived the tribunal and concealed the crass fraud and perverted the course of justice.
  • Osborn denied and concealed the circumstances of and surrounding the sale of my land by MCL.
• Purporting to rely on those and other overtly false and fraudulent fabrications Osborn made judgment against me.
• In 2007, 2008 and 2009 Appeal Court Judges Buchanan, Neave, Mandie, Redlich and Beach published Reasons for Judgment which specifically said that there was no evidence of my allegation that Osborn’s Reasons were fabricated.
• In the period 2009 to the present day three consecutive Attorneys General have conspired with solicitors and officers of the Justice Department to corruptly deny and conceal the evidence of the conduct of the various judges and of Garde and Price.
• Osborn and the Court of Appeal Judges ordered that I pay Garde and his 2005 to 2009 co-conspirators almost one million dollars.
• Garde and his co-conspirators are intimately aware that Osborn and the Court of Appeal Judges fabricated their reasons to deny and conceal their corrupt and criminal conduct and particularly conceal and deny the 1988 criminal conduct of Price, Garde and Lonie.
• My losses to the fraud of Osborn and his apologist judges are the sum of the losses on the mortgagees sale and the extorted purported costs paid to Garde and his co-conspirators
• In a democracy these matters and things constitute the most grievous crimes and corruption imaginable; they are crimes against democracy itself.

*******************

It is now manifest that high level criminals of the ilk of Garde and Osborn commit their overt and flagrant crimes in surety that their friends in high places will protect them and simply ignore the plaintiff cries of their voiceless and hapless victims.

In this matter, in the final and base analysis,

• The crass fraud of the Council and Water Authority was the fraudulent representation that to the absolute exclusion of “the estate” the water supply agreement was an agreement to provide water to the timeshare company and that I/my land was not entitled to and could not have access to that water except with the agreement of the timeshare company.
• The 1988 conspiracy of Price, Garde and Lonie to pervert the course of justice and conceal and deny the crass fraud depended on a fraudulent representation that the water supply agreement was an agreement for the supply of water to “the estate”.
• The 2006 fraud by Justice Robert Osborn to conceal and deny the crass fraud was founded on his several overtly false fraudulent misrepresentations to the identical effect of the conspiracy of Price, Garde and Lonie, namely that the water supply agreement was an agreement for the supply of water to “this subdivision”, “to the subdivision” and “to the whole of the subdivision”.
• The 2007, 2008 and 2009 fraud by the Court of Appeal Justices was to explicitly represent that there was no evidence that Osborn’s Reasons were fabricated as alleged by me.
• The 2009 to the present day corrupt conduct of the three consecutive Attorneys General is their representations that there is no evidence of my allegations and that they seek to conceal the evidence.
• At the time of making their various representations each of the council and water authority and the various judges and the Attorneys General were absolutely aware of the crass fraud and that the so called water supply agreement was nothing more than a piece of paper which made several fraudulent and unlawful representations and that the representations of the Council and Water Authority and of Price, Garde and Lonie and of Osborn were nothing more than fraudulent misrepresentations.

This sequence of sordid events occurred entirely as a consequence of the fact that MCL consented to John Norman Price acting for the timeshare company and that John Norman Price and the now Major General Justice Greg Garde then conspired with one another and others to pervert the course of justice by denying and concealing the crass fraud and that MCL then sold my land in the circumstances of that ongoing crass fraud.

I now demand that the Directors of the ANZ Bank and particularly Mr. David Gonski assist me to put an end to this chain of extreme criminal and corrupt conduct by standing up and authoritatively saying;

• That my land was sold in the circumstances of the crass fraud.
• That the purported Water Supply Agreement cannot be construed as represented by the Water Authority.
• That the Water Supply Agreement is NOT an agreement for the supply of water to “the estate” cannot be construed as represented by Price and Garde in 1988
• That the Water Supply Agreement is NOT an agreement for the supply of water to “this subdivision”, “the subdivision”, “the whole of the subdivision” and cannot be construed as represented by Justice Robert Osborn in his Reasons for Judgment dated 29^th November 2006.

To assist I include herewith;

• Copy Certificate of Incorporation of the timeshare company.
• Copy Transfer of Land dated 16^th December 1981 where the timeshare company acquired ten only allotments.
• Copy purported water supply agreement dated 1^st January 1982.
• Copy written submission of Lieutenant Colonel Greg Garde dated 7^th March 1988.
