Multiple outlets report that Coles is now dealing with a complex damages-calculation process after losing a court case this week. The coverage describes a legal “process” in which large teams of lawyers work to quantify what harm shoppers may have suffered and, based on that assessment, determine the damages Coles could be required to pay.
While the articles focus on the procedural next step rather than detailed findings, they consistently characterise the work as difficult and time-consuming, involving legal and evidentiary considerations to estimate losses attributable to Coles. The reports do not present a single figure for any damages at this stage, indicating that any compensation outcome depends on how the court evaluates the submissions and calculations.
All three sources frame the post-verdict phase as a substantial undertaking for both sides, with lawyers attempting to define the scale and scope of damages linked to the earlier court decision.
