DONOHUE

v

THE QUEEN

[2020] HCASL 242
M64/2020

1. The applicant requires an extension of time within which to file an application for special leave to appeal from the decision of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Victoria (Priest and Beach JJA) given on 2 July 2019.

2. An appeal to this Court would enjoy insufficient prospects of success to warrant a grant of special leave. Accordingly, it would be futile to grant the extension of time sought by the applicant. Special leave should be refused.

3. 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.
