#STARMONEY BUSINESS 6 TRIAL#
The lengthy trial has been plagued by delays, including the death of the original judge assigned to the case, Mr Sebastian’s Covid-19 diagnosis and health emergencies.

However, the defense barrister representing Mr Day told the court his client was entitled to be reimbursed for the expenses he incurred while working for the Australian Idol winner. The Crown argued that Mr Day “misappropriated the money” by withdrawing it and using it “for purposes other than Mr Sebastian’s benefits,” the judge said. Throughout the nearly two-month Judge Gartelmann argued the Crown trial that Mr Day was an experienced celebrity manager who was aware of his actions when handling Mr Sebastian’s money. “The Crown must prove beyond reasonable doubt that he knew he had no right to use the money as he did at the time.” “It is not enough for the Crown to prove that he (Mr Day) in fact had no right to use the money as he did,” he said. In his summation of the facts of the case, Judge Tim Gartelmann SC told the jurors a guilty verdict was only possible if the Crown had proven Mr Sebastian’s estranged ex-manager deliberately withheld money owed to the musician.
