Elizabeth Hollingworth is a Trials Division justice at the Supreme Court of Victoria. She was appointed to the bench in June 2004, after a 15-year career as a lawyer beginning in 1989.[1]
In June 2014, Hollingworth made an order banning any reporting, including on the affidavit provided by Gillian Bird,[2] in Australia,[3] about a case involving Securency International, a partially state-owned company at the time, allegedly involved in the bribery of officials to win currency printing contracts.[4] The order was published by WikiLeaks in July 2014,[5] and Hollingworth revoked the suppression order in June 2015.[6]
On 2 October 2014, Hollingworth sentenced Dylan Closter to 9 years and 3 months (6 years non parole) over the one-punch death of David Cassai, which fueled Cassai's mother to lobby for harsher sentencing in relation to one-punch deaths.[7]
On 29 October 2019, Hollingworth sentenced Codey Herrmann to 36 years (30 years non parole) over the murder of Aiia Maasarwe.[8]
On 19 December 2023, Convicted terrorist Abdul Nacer Benbrika is released into the community after Hollingworth granted his release on an extended supervision order.[9]
