Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper examines the application and interpretation of the common knowledge rule in common-law evidence jurisdictions in Australia in domestic violence cases. It explores the ways in which the rule shapes the kinds of expert evidence that are admitted in domestic violence cases. It considers the potential admissibility of social framework evidence on these different approaches and argues that statutory reform may be required in order to admit such evidence.
