This section of the law used to be about something called a ‘bench warrant’, which was part of the rules for trials and sentences in the Crimes Act 1961. However, this part of the law doesn’t exist anymore. It was removed on 1 January 2001 when a new law called the Bail Act 2000 was made. If you want to know more about what replaced this section, you might need to look at the Bail Act 2000.
