v
ATTORNEY-GENERAL FOR THE STATE OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA & ORS[2020] HCASL 175
A7/2020
The applicant requires an extension of time in which to seek special leave to appeal from an order of Blue J of the Supreme Court of South Australia refusing the applicant permission under s 39 of the Supreme Court Act 1935 (SA) to commence a proceeding in the Magistrates Court of South Australia against the applicant's former solicitors.
An extension of time would be pointless. There is no reason to doubt the correctness of Blue J's holding that the applicant's claim was statute barred and that no evidence was adduced capable of establishing that the applicant was under a disability for the purposes of s 45(2) of the Limitation of Actions Act 1936 (SA). An appeal to this Court would enjoy no prospect of success.
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.
