Abstract
Farm Debt Mediation legislation prevents banks from enforcing farm debts unless mediation has taken place - this case avoided the legislation by the creditor seeking to enforce loan agreements as opposed to mortgages. The second case looks at whether, under Australian law, an agreement struck during mediation is enforceable pursuant to Masters v Cameron. Finally the author looks at the Jack Daniels method of resolving a trademark dispute.
