A 35-YEAR-OLD man has pleaded not guilty to sexually assaulting a Victorian tourist after New Year's Eve celebrations.
Mathew Luke Johnson, of Hobart, is facing one count of aggravated sexual assault over the alleged attack in the Parliament House car park in the early hours of January 1 this year.
The prosecution alleges the 27-year-old complainant was so intoxicated there was "no way she was remotely able to give consent".
Crown prosecutor Tony Jacobs told the jury the woman -- a school teacher who was here on holiday -- "was completely helpless".
But defence lawyer Kim Baumeler asked the woman if she had consensually kissed Mr Johnson outside a nightclub before the alleged assault.
The complainant said she could not remember but agreed that that was what she had told police.
Ms Baumeler suggested it was the complainant who led the accused into the car park and at that stage she was still able to provide consent.
The trial, before Justice Alan Blow, is continuing.
