In short:
An Adelaide man has been found guilty of contempt of court after ignoring court orders to remove an unauthorised cheese facility built in his backyard.
The Environment, Resources and Development Court found retiree John Kitsis “wilfully disobeyed” court orders.
What’s next?
He was ordered to pay court costs exceeding $120,000.
This is one of those “if everybody did that” rules. Sure, it’s irksome to be told what you can or can not do in the privacy of your own home. However, if everybody set up a cottage industry in their back yard it would cause obvious problems.
If a neighbor complained, there’s a good chance there were odors or pests or whatever. Case in point really.
At the risk of sounding stupid, what would the problems caused by a large number of people making their own cheese be?
Making your own cheese is fine. Making commercial quantities is problematic. Mostly related to hygiene, but also quiet enjoyment of neighbours.
It would attract Dutch people.
It would undermine the capital leverage of the ruling class, obviously.
