Ahamed v Coles Supermarkets Australia Pty Ltd & Ors

AHAMED

v

COLES SUPERMARKETS AUSTRALIA PTY LTD & ORS

[2024] HCASL 204
M48/2024

1. The applicant requires an extension of time within which to seek special leave to appeal from the whole of the judgment of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Victoria (Macaulay JA and Forrest AJA), dismissing an application for leave to appeal from a decision of the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (Judge Marks), which in turn dismissed a claim for discrimination on the basis of race contrary to s 44 of the Equal Opportunity Act 2010 (Vic).

2. There is no reason to doubt the correctness of the decision of the Court of Appeal. It would therefore be futile to grant the extension of time that is sought.

3. Special leave to appeal is refused.
