Jury Act 1977

Except to the extent that this Act otherwise provides, proceedings for offences against this Act shall be disposed of in a summary manner before the Local Court.

Proceedings for an offence under section 68 by a corporation may be dealt with—

summarily before the Local Court, or

summarily before the Supreme Court in its summary jurisdiction.

If proceedings for an offence under section 68 by a corporation are brought in the Local Court, the maximum monetary penalty that the Local Court may impose for the offence is $10,000, despite any higher maximum monetary penalty provided in respect of the offence by that section.

Chapter 5 of the Criminal Procedure Act 1986 (which relates to the summary disposal of certain indictable offences unless an election is made to proceed on indictment) applies to and in respect of an offence under section 68A.
