TRANSCRIPT OF PROCEEDINGS

AT CANBERRA ON WEDNESDAY, 29 AUGUST 2007, AT 9.24 AM

Copyright in the High Court of Australia

HAYNE J:   The applicant is a citizen of Bangladesh. He seeks special leave to appeal to this Court against orders of a single judge of the Federal Court of Australia (Emmett J) made in the exercise of the appellate jurisdiction of that Court. By those orders, Emmett J dismissed the applicant's appeal against orders of the Federal Magistrates Court (Nicholls FM). The Federal Magistrate dismissed the applicant's application for relief under s 39B of the Judiciary Act 1903 (Cth) (and associated relief) directed to the Refugee Review Tribunal in respect of its decision to affirm the refusal by a delegate of the Minister to grant the applicant a protection visa.

Because the applicant is unrepresented, the application falls to be dealt with under r 41.10 of the High Court Rules 2004.

The applicant has not demonstrated prospects of sufficient success to warrant the grant of special leave.

Pursuant to r 41.10.5 we direct the Registrar to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing the application.

I publish that disposition.

AT 9.25 AM THE MATTER WAS CONCLUDED
