CURTIS & ANOR

v

CURTIS

[2024] HCASL 263
S83/2024

1. The applicant seeks an extension of time to apply for special leave to appeal from a judgment of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of New South Wales (Leeming JA, Mitchelmore JA and Basten A-JA agreeing). That decision allowed an appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court of New South Wales (Elkaim AJ), concerning an application for provision pursuant to s 59 of the Succession Act 2006 (NSW).

2. The application does not involve a question of law that is of public importance and has insufficient prospects of success to make it in the interests of the administration of justice to warrant the grant of special leave to appeal. It would therefore be futile to grant the extension of time that is sought.

3. Special leave to appeal is refused with costs.
