Federal Court judge Anthony Kelly has issued an interim injunction against the federal government’s attempt to deport Novak Djokovic. The injunction means that the world’s number one men’s tennis player can remain in Australia until at least Monday, when the court will review Djokovic’s legal challenge against Australia’s border security rules and the cancellation of his visa for breaching vaccination orders. He will remain in hotel quarantine until his hearing is heard, with his lawyer Nick Wood stating the Australian Open would be hoping for a decision on whether Djokovic can stay in Australia by Tuesday, so it can reschedule the draw if necessary.
