An ex-TV producer who gave last-minute evidence in the case against Bruce Lehrmann has tried to summon a judge to court for his own defamation case.
Taylor Auerbach is suing his former employer over claims Seven Network made disparaging comments about him that led the producer to be shunned and villified, after he gave evidence in the case launched by Lehrmann against Network Ten and journalist Lisa Wilkinson over an interview with Brittany Higgins.
