ADVERTISER NEWS WEEKEND PUBLISHING CO PTY LTD & ANOR
[2017] HCASL 16
A44/2016

1. The application for special leave to appeal does not raise a question of general importance.  None of the applicant's proposed appeal grounds enjoys sufficient prospects of success to warrant a grant of special leave.  Special leave should be refused with costs.

2. 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.
