Supreme Court Rules 2000

A relevant matter is a matter, other than a suitability matter, which a reasonable applicant under this Division may consider would affect whether or not the Court believes the applicant is a fit and proper person for admission.

Without limiting the generality of subrule (1), relevant matters may include the following matters:any outstanding charges for criminal offences against the applicant; if the applicant is, or has been, the subject of disciplinary action, however described, arising out of conduct in attaining academic qualifications or completing practical legal training; any prior unsuccessful application by the applicant for admission in any jurisdiction including Tasmania; if the applicant suffers from an illness or condition which would affect his or her ability to adequately or safely perform the duties and responsibilities of a practitioner.
