The Federal Court has published its decision in the consumer class action on Medibank’s claim for legal professional privilege over certain third-party reports and correspondence concerning the 2022 cybercrime event.
The Court held that the reports prepared by Deloitte were not subject to legal professional privilege and upheld Medibank’s claims to legal professional privilege in respect of the remaining third-party reports and correspondence.
Medibank has applied for leave to appeal the decision in relation to the reports by Deloitte.
