DUARTE

v

MORSE & ANOR

[2024] HCASL 255
S84/2024

1. The applicant requires an extension of time within which to seek special leave to appeal from a decision of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 1) Appellate Jurisdiction (Austin, Hartnett and Brasch JJ) dismissing an appeal from the judgment of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 1) (Harper J) in relation to an application seeking property settlement orders.  

2. The decision of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 1) Appellate Jurisdiction is not attended with sufficient doubt, and the proposed appeal does not raise a question of law of general public importance, 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.
