Note Printing ordered to pay CEO legal bills

摘要

Note Printing Australia has been ordered to foot the legal bills of its former chief executive as he is hauled through the courts on foreign bribery charges. John Leckenby, who led the Reserve Bank subsidiary in 1998-2004, is facing a string of charges, including that he bribed foreign officials to secure bank note printing contracts for NPA. The Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Victoria has dismissed an appeal by NPA against paying in advance Leckenby's considerable legal bills from the protracted legal process than began in 2011.
