At a glance
- The coalition has made progress on its judicial overhaul, but the High Court is expected to reject changes to the judicial appointments process and other laws.
- The coalitionโs future, and the courtโs ability to retain its authority, may depend on the election outcome.
The coalition has scored successes in its campaign to overhaul the judiciary, but its larger victory remains uncertain. The High Court and the elections will determine what survives.
The court will likely strike down changes to the judicial appointments process, along with other legislation. Yet that may not settle the dispute.
If the coalition returns after the vote, it may have to fight to preserve the courtโs power. The judicial overhaul has therefore moved beyond legislation alone, with the election set to shape the balance between the coalition and the High Court.
