  • ADMINISTRATIVE: Yearning for the single life
    2024/11/18

    CASE: Pietsch and Secretary, Department of Social Services [2024] AATA 2678

    In May 2020, Russell Pietsch was 70 years old and newly in love. His young bride Tresha was 18 years old and living in the Philippines.

    But there was a bug in their budding romance. For 6 years Russell had been receiving the age pension at the single rate and now that he was in a relationship, his payments were cut.

    Russell was not going to take this lying down! He appealed all the way to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal.

    The key question for consideration was this: Was there any special reason why Russell should continue to receive the single age pension when he was not single?

    CASE: Wallis v Rudek [2020] NSWSC 162; Wallis v Rudek (No 2) [2020] NSWSC 215

    Yuri & Olga Wallis were in financial crisis. They were about to lose their house in Pennant Hills, Sydney.

    The property was worth $950,000 but they owed $840,000 to the bank and they were unable to pay the mortgage.

    They asked their daughter Suzanne to buy them out on the agreement that Suzanne and her family would live in the upstairs dwelling and they would live in the downstairs dwelling.

    Suzanne stepped up to help. But Yuri was not a good neighbour. He prevented much needed repairs to the property, he invaded the upstairs space, and he verbally abused Suzanne's husband and children.

    When Suzanne tried to evict them, her parents refused to leave.
