JJS

v

THE KING

[2024] HCASL 151
S161/2023

1. The applicant requires an extension of time within which to seek special leave to appeal from a decision of the Court of Criminal Appeal of New South Wales (Basten A-JA, Hamill and Dhanji JJ agreeing).

2. In light of the decision of this Court in Director of Public Prosecutions v Benjamin Roder (a pseudonym) [2024] HCA 15, the application has no prospects of success. Accordingly, it would be futile to grant an extension of time.

3. Special leave to appeal is refused.
