Hi, I'm trying to trace the history (or journey) of a case from the first mention to the court of final appeal. Are records of such available to the public under Australian Law? Any guidance or direction would be greatly appreciated.

That will depend on whether the relevant instances are publicised.
Go here: LawCite
Find whichever part of the series you can. Then click on the blue case name (not the green citation). This will bring up a screen showing, amongst other things, the "Cases Referring to this Case" and "Cases and Articles Cited". Within those you should find:
- From "Cases Referring to this Case": any appeals of the decision you're looking at; and
- From "Cases and Articles Cited": the decision which the case you're looking at is an appeal of.
