Legal Battle Between Luke Sayers and Wife Over Controversial Photo Heads to Court
A legal dispute between former Carlton president Luke Sayers and his wife regarding a controversial photo is heading to court. The photo, showing Mr. Sayers's genitals, was posted on his social media account, prompting his resignation. Mr. Sayers claimed his account was hacked. His wife, Cate, filed a defamation lawsuit against him, alleging that he falsely accused her of posting the image. The Supreme Court of Victoria has decided to keep the case within its jurisdiction, allowing for public scrutiny. Justice Andrew Watson rejected Mr. Sayers's request to move the case to a different court, setting the stage for a potential trial in November.
