A former lawyer accused of conspiring to launder money is set to challenge a magistrate's court order committing him to stand trial.
Ben Aulich, 51, and accountant Michael Papandrea, 57, are accused of conspiring in 2020 to help an undercover police officer buy a supermarket to launder $100,000 cash per month, purported to be from the illegal import of cigarettes.
On Wednesday, the ACT Supreme Court heard both men were seeking a judicial review of a magistrate's decision to commit the case to a higher court.
