On his blog pundit, Andrew Geddis, a legal expert gives his analysis of the Callinan report leak and what it possiblty means for the balance of probabilities test and the future of Bain's compensation bid. In essence he says that the customary test of extraordinary circumstances, that being the beyond reasonable doubt test, has, in Bain's case, failed. There are no precedents for compensation being paid out on any other matter of extraordinary circumstances in such cases where a person is acquitted following retrial.
