BUSSEY
v
THE QUEEN
[2021] HCASL 156
S51/2021
An extension of time is necessary to allow this application for special leave to appeal to proceed. The appeal against conviction foreshadowed by the application for special leave would not raise any question of general principle, and the interests of justice in this particular case are not engaged so as to warrant the grant of special leave to appeal. The proposed appeal against sentence raises no issue of principle, and does not enjoy sufficient prospects of success to warrant the grant of special leave to appeal. Both grounds of the application should be refused. It would be futile, in these circumstances, to grant the extension of time to enable the application to proceed.
Pursuant to r 41.08.1 of the High Court Rules 2004 (Cth), we direct the Registrar to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing the application.
P.A. Keane J.S. Gleeson 12 August 2021
