I haven't read the transcript, but relying on Creampuff's quote re: Issues: my reading of that however, is that the 'parties' agreed on a course of action which the Court has allowed - however did the Court RULE on any of the disputed matters?
If not, and they just upheld the agreement/ resolution, then such can hardly be held as a precedent in future claims?
Bit like the difference between CASA Approving VS Accepting an Ops manual etc. Nit picking, but that's the way the law works isn't it?
