v

THE KING

[2024] HCASL 242
S61/2024

1. The applicant requires an extension of time within which to seek special leave to appeal from the judgment of the Court of Criminal Appeal of the Supreme Court of New South Wales (Button, Davies and Weinstein JJ), allowing an appeal from a judgment of the District Court of New South Wales (Wass SC DCJ).

2. The Court of Criminal Appeal's judgment is not attended by sufficient doubt to warrant a grant of special leave to appeal, and the grounds of appeal have insufficient prospects of success. Accordingly, it is futile to grant an extension of time.

3. Special leave to appeal is refused.
