CRUMP

v

THE QUEEN
[2020] HCASL 105
S328/2019

  1. This is an application for special leave to appeal from a judgment of the Court of Criminal Appeal of the Supreme Court of New South Wales (Meagher JA, Rothman and Bellew JJ agreeing). The application has insufficient prospects of success to warrant the grant of special leave to appeal. The application requires an extension of time to proceed. It would be futile to grant the necessary extension of time. The application should be dismissed.

  2. 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.

CaseChat Overview and Summary

The case of Crump v The Queen was an application for special leave to appeal against a decision of the Court of Criminal Appeal of the Supreme Court of New South Wales. The applicant, Crump, sought to appeal the decision on the grounds that the lower court had erred in its legal reasoning. The application was dismissed by the High Court of Australia.

The central legal issue in this case was whether the applicant had demonstrated sufficient grounds for an appeal to the High Court. The High Court had to determine if the application had sufficient prospects of success and if granting an extension of time would be futile.

In evaluating the application, the High Court considered the merits of the applicant's arguments and the likelihood of success. The Court found that the application did not have sufficient prospects of success and that granting an extension of time would be futile. The High Court concluded that the application should be dismissed, and the Registrar was directed to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing the application.
