Festival goers who were unlawfully strip searched could lose out on thousands in compensation as police appeal a landmark court decision.
The NSW Supreme Court in October awarded Raya Meredith $93,000 in damages after police forced her to remove her clothing and tampon during a drug search at the 2018 Splendour in the Grass festival in Byron Bay.
More than 3000 people could also receive compensation after registering to Ms Meredith's class action, run by law firm Slater and Gordon.
