Adventures in Blunderland

Last nights meeting of the Bar Room Barristers began and ended with matters constitutional. We ventured into the deep murky waters of whether CASA using the AAT 'system' instead of a court process was actually unconstitutional.

At the risk of a sharp rebuff from Creampuff (accepted in good spirit), and given there are super legal eagles who deal with these heady matters, which I accept as being way beyond the ken of mere mortals; I beg some indulgence from the peers in the name of education.

We probably made every mistake in the lawyers handbook, but after a few cold ones, it made some sense. So, let the simplistic questions stand.

Is using the AAT in the CASA style unconstitutional ??. (Civil liberties etc.).
How could this be tested ?. Fiscal limitations not withstanding.
