Original Note:
The High Court of Australia found that indefinite detention was unlawful, ruling that it was unconstitutional to hold people in detention when there was no realistic chance of deportation. It was not a decision of the Home Affairs minister or the government. https://www8.austlii.edu.au/cgi-bin/viewdoc/au/cases/cth/HCATrans/2023/154.html https://www.hcourt.gov.au/assets/publications/judgment-summaries/2023/hca-37-2023-11-28.pdf https://www.9news.com.au/national/high-court-ruling-immigration-detention-asylum-seekers-released-visa-conditions/0d746d47-46a8-4a47-8d79-51eca815271a
