HUGGINS

v

THE STATE OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA

[2020] HCASL 134
P18/2020

  1. The applicant requires a substantial extension of time in which to seek special leave to appeal from a judgment of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Western Australia (Buss P and Mazza and Beech JJA) dismissing the applicant's appeal on one ground, and otherwise refusing leave to appeal, against his conviction of 16 sexual offences against seven complainants.

  2. There is no point in granting the extension of time which is sought.  The applicant identifies no question of principle and no reason to doubt the correctness of the Court of Appeal's judgment.  Accordingly, it would not be in the interests of justice generally or in the circumstances of this case to grant special leave to appeal.

  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.
