About

Hi, I’m Kyle McDonald, a barrister at the Victorian Bar practising mainly in criminal law, and a tweeter, blogger, and tech-head. I’m interested in technology in the law and crime.

I originally started this blog on Blogger, and now WordPress. You’ll also find posts by a co-contributor under the pseudonym Dr Manhattan.

I blog about things I think are relevant to criminal practice in Victoria, especially in courts of summary jurisdiction, or just because I think it’s interesting, quirky or amusing. Comments are welcome, but are subject to moderation or removal.

I don’t discuss my own cases.

None of the material on this blog is legal advice. I am a lawyer, but I’m not your lawyer. If you need legal advice, see a lawyer.

Don’t rely on any information on this site without seeking professional advice specific to your situation. Posts are in reverse-date order. I usually don’t revisit or edit them after they’re posted, so they may become out-of-date.

Material on this blog may be modified or altered at any time.
