• In July 2014 the Queensland Mental Health Court delivered its first decision concerning an appeal against the imposition of a monitoring condition on a Queensland forensic mental health patient: Re CMX [2014] QMHC 4. Re CMX concerned the use of a GPS tracking device on a forensic mental health patient in circumstances where clinical evidence from the treating psychiatrist was to the effect that such a device was not warranted. This case review provides a summary of the facts and findings of Re CMX and details the guidance the Court gave as to the significant consideration, justification and recordkeeping required for a decision to impose a monitoring condition.
