The case was scheduled to be presented before Judge Janine Lacy in Burwood Local Court on Tuesday. However, the 28-year-old did not show up.
“We believe the defendant is offshore at this time,” the prosecutors said, adding that they requested that the case be handled in Gallagher's absence.
Judge Lacy verified that Gallagher's immigration records indicated he was "overseas" before convicting him in his absence and issuing a warrant for his arrest.
