GROCON CONSTRUCTORS (QLD) PTY LTD
v
JUNIPER DEVELOPERS NO. 2 PTY LTD (RECEIVERS AND MANAGERS APPOINTED) (IN LIQUIDATION) & ANOR
[2016] HCASL 82
B3/2016
This is an application for special leave to appeal from the decision of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Queensland (McMeekin J, Holmes CJ and Atkinson J agreeing), dismissing an appeal from the refusal of Peter Lyons J to declare that cl 35.7 (a liquidated damages clause) of a contract for the construction of a substantial development at Surfers Paradise was void as a penalty.
None of the proposed grounds of appeal enjoys sufficient prospects of success to warrant the grant of special leave to appeal. Pursuant to r 41.11.1 of the High Court Rules 2004 (Cth), we direct the Registrar to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing the application with costs.
