TRANSCRIPT OF PROCEEDINGS

AT CANBERRA ON THURSDAY, 17 NOVEMBER 2005, AT 9.27 AM

Copyright in the High Court of Australia

HAYNE J:   The applicant seeks special leave to appeal from the refusal, by a single Judge of the Federal Court (Jacobson J), of an extension of time within which to seek leave to appeal from the decision of Branson J of that Court refusing the applicant’s application for an order nisi for constitutional writs and associated relief.

Because the applicant is unrepresented, this application for special leave falls to be dealt with in accordance with rule 41.10 of the High Court Rules 2004.

It is not necessary to consider whether an appeal from the decision of Jacobson J would be competent.  An appeal, if competent, would enjoy no prospect of success.

Pursuant to rule 41.10.5 we direct the Registrar to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing the application. I publish that disposition.

AT 9.28 AM THE MATTER WAS CONCLUDED
