The former Carenne School student, David Withyman, who alleges he was involved in a sexual relationship will bring his case before the Sydney District Court today. Mr Withyman is suing the state and former Carenne School teacher Anna Blackburn over the relationship.
Mr Withyman won the right to sue the state of NSW after a ruling by Judge Ray McLoughlin in November 2008 where the judge found there was prima facie evidence that Carenne School and Miss Blackburn had breached their duty of care to the former student.
In late November 2008, the affair received national media coverage when Miss Blackburn sued the NSW Department of Education for unfair dismissal. After hearing five days of evidence and a brief adjournment, Miss Blackburn withdrew her claim and agreed to pay the department's costs.
Mr Withyman's case commences today at 10AM in District Court 13B, John Maddison Tower, Goulburn Street, Haymarket.
