The Feb 26 Letter That Could Decide Jackie’s Case

The Feb 26 Letter That Could Decide Jackie’s Case

Author: Game Changers: Radio July 20, 2026 Duration: 34:02

Everything now appears to come back to one document: Jackie Henderson's complaint letter to ARN on 26 February.

In this episode, workplace relations lawyer, Michael Byrnes, explains why ARN's amended defence has shifted the battleground away from the on-air argument and onto Jackie's motivation for writing that letter.

Did Jackie genuinely raise workplace concerns? Or had she already decided to leave breakfast before the complaint was made?

Michael breaks down "good faith" in plain English, explains why the timing matters so much, and takes us inside Jackie's court-ordered medical examination and how much weight the report could carry.
