Historically speaking, CASA have not done very well in either the AAT or the open Court system, but also historically speaking (UZU for example, Hi Torres ), CASA does not need to win in Court to have the "desired" effect.
Where do you get your facts - or do you just make them up as you go along - or just prefer to regurgiate what you hear second hand>

I suggest you actually do some research before making such comments. Go to the Austlii website and look up all the AAT cases involving CASA.

This is what you'll find.

Between 1997 and 2008 there are some 87 cases reported where CASA's decisions have been challenged in the AAT. So what is the break down?

41 cases affirmed CASA's decisions (ie the AAT said it was the correct decision).

5 decsions were affirmed in part but also varied in part.

6 applications for review were dismissed.

11 CASA decisions were set aside.

8 decisions to cancel a licence were changed to suspensions.

2 decisions were sent back to CASA for consideration.

8 applications for a stay were granted.

6 applicatons for a stay were refused.

Hardly seems like CASA has not done very well in the AAT.
