  Magistrates Court : 2004 No 5 - Rescinded
The Prison Service has requested that solicitors’ visits to take instructions from clients at the Hobart Remand Centre (HRC) be regularised, as last-minute requests are causing logistical difficulties in both the HRC and the Hobart Magistrates Court.
Similarly, interviews with clients at either of the Remand Centres in Hobart or Launceston on the same day immediately prior to their appearance in the Magistrates Court are not always able to be arranged due to other duties that Remand Centre staff are required to undertake for other remandees and prisoners.
The Remand Centre staff will arrange interviews in circumstances where there has not been a reasonable opportunity to obtain instructions in advance eg.

The holding cells at the Hobart magistrates court were apparently unavailable to the men for some reason, so we said goodbye to the women for the time being and we were sent over to Bellerive police station where they had enough cells for us.
Most of the "regulars" in the remand section with us were not there for the first time, and seemed quite pleased to have the distraction of greenies to divert them from the grim tedium that was prison life.

Thus, because this written Fiscal Plan was significantly changed after its passage, and after the passage of the Annexation Ordinance by the New Castle Common Council, we find that allowing this Fiscal Plan to be significantly amended at the remonstrance hearing violates Ind. Code § 36-4-3-13(d) and the principles set forth in Chidester I.
Consequently, we remand this matter to the trial court for a new remonstrance hearing based on the original written Fiscal Plan as passed by resolution of the New Castle Common Council.
Based on the foregoing, we conclude that the trial court erred in granting partial summary judgment as to paragraphs six (6) through ten (10) and twelve (12) through fourteen (14) of Count II of Remonstrator’s Third Amended Petition for Declaratory Judgment and Remonstrance.
