Sandilands sues ARN over sacking

Kyle Sandilands has commenced legal proceedings against ARN, claiming the company’s termination of his contract breached Australian consumer law.

Sandilands served copies of the court documents to Commonwealth Broadcasting Corporation, a subsidiary of ARN and the licence holder for Kiis 1065 Sydney, on Friday evening after the close of the stock market.

According to an ASX filing made by ARN on Monday morning, Sandilands is claiming the termination of his contract, announced last Wednesday March 18, was invalid as “there was no act of serious misconduct or breach of contract”.
