REASONS FOR JUDGMENT
In this matter there was a first directions hearing on 15 March 2012. On that date I asked the representative of the Minister to contact the applicant, who had not appeared, and advise him that the matter had been relisted today at 9.30 am. They did do that and there has been tendered to me a copy of a letter sent to the applicant at the address shown on the application which was filed on 23 January 2012. The applicant has not appeared today. His name was called outside the court, but he did not respond. In those circumstances, I propose to dismiss the matter pursuant to Part 13 Rule 13.03C(1)(c) of the Federal Magistrates Court Rules2001 (Cth). I order that the applicant pay the respondent’s costs which I assess in the sum of $750.00.
I certify that the preceding one (1) paragraph is a true copy of the reasons for judgment of Raphael FM
