Kyle Sandilands begins legal action

Kyle Sandilands has formally begun legal action against ARN in the Federal Court.

Sandilands’ legal team at Johnson Winter Slattery has filed a statement of claim alleging that ARN deliberately conspired to terminate his contract. Court papars were served on ARN and KIIS Sydney licence holding company CBC Pty Ltd after the close of the stock exchange last Friday.

ARN disputes the claims and intends to defend the proceedings.

The applicants claim the termination of Kyle Sandilands’ contract was invalid on the basis that they allege there was no serious act of misconduct or breach of contract. The court documents further allege that the termination was unconscionable under Australian Consumer Law.

Kyle wants the court to grant “an order for specific performance of two contracts, payment of whatever amounts are due and damages.”

Kyle has also put his Glenorie property in Sydney up for sale. The six-bedroom, five-bathroom Sydney mansion is on the market for $5.9 million, four years after he purchased it at almost half the price. He quietly bought the property as a home for his family, but when his wife Tegan said she didn’t want to live there, he decided to renovate it and then flip it for a profit.

Here is a look through it.
