Can A Civil Lawsuit Be Filed Against COVID Liar? - Lawyer Greg Griffin

It is pretty unbelievable how far one little lie can go, and that has been the case in South Australia on accounts of a false statement from an employee at the Woodville Pizza Bar.

Countless businesses across the state have had to halt trading as part of the Circuit Breaker. A lockdown called for by Premier Steven Marshall as a response to the COVID tracing conducted into the Parafield Cluster.

After an investigation discovered the lie, the restrictions on the State have been dramatically reduced, however, the damage to the businesses has already been done, not to mention the cancellation of weddings, funerals or events planned for this weekend. 

Can action be taken against this individual?

Bernie and Jars contacted Greg Griffin of Griffins Lawyers to find out.
