Australia was in many ways still part of the British legal system until the Australia Act was passed in 1986. This Act of the Commonwealth Parliament gave Australia essentially political and legal independence. This question, however, can only be answered with knowledge of Australia's past. Australia was established as a British Colony when the first fleet was sent and it was ruled that Australia was Terra Nulluis, meaning it was land belonging to no one. Immediately (according to the doctrine of reception) British laws applied to all of the Empires subjects and other primitives inhabiting the land. It is because of this doctrine of reception that Australia has typically adopted the British Common law system of law.
Australia's legal system is based on the British legal system (as Australia is a commonwealth country). This is a distinctly different system than that originating from the Roman empire; the Civil law system. It should be noted that these SYSTEMS are different from the CATEGORIES of law in Australia; common law and civil law. For this purpose, common law refers to the law of the courts made by judges through precedent. Civil law is the type of law between individuals and citizens, as opposed to criminal law where it is the individual v the state.
