Chandrasekaran, In the matter of an application for leave to issue or file

This matter concerned an ex parte application by Sujatha Chandrasekaran to the High Court of Australia for leave to issue or file an application for a constitutional or other writ. The application was considered by a Justice of the High Court.

The primary legal issue before the Court was whether the applicant had demonstrated an arguable basis for relief, and whether the proposed application complied with the High Court Rules 2004 (Cth), specifically Part 25 and rule 6.07.2. The applicant sought to issue or file an application naming seven proposed defendants, including various government bodies and individuals.

The Court, having reviewed the applicant's affidavit and submissions, determined that the proposed application for a constitutional or other writ did not disclose an arguable basis for relief. Furthermore, the Court found that the application constituted an abuse of process and failed to comply with the requirements of Part 25 of the High Court Rules. Consequently, the Court directed that the application for leave be determined without an oral hearing.

The ex parte application for leave to issue or file the application for a constitutional or other writ was refused.
