THE PRESIDENT: The appellant has been dilatory in progressing this appeal and has not complied with the orders made by me on the 21st of February 2003. The appeal record book has still not been filed and served.

He tells me that he will certainly be able to prepare the

appeal record book and have the requisite numbers in the

appropriate form delivered to the registry and served on the

respondent by 4 p.m. on Wednesday 23rd of April 2003. The

appeal is currently listed for hearing on the 27th of May this	20
year in the sittings of this Court at Cairns.
It is imperative now that the appellant progress this appeal
and his failure to do so warrants the striking out without any
further appearances before this Court of the appeal for want	30
of prosecution.
I order that the appeal record book in compliance with the
practice direction be filed and served by 4 p.m. on Wednesday
23 April 2003. If this order is not complied with, the appeal	40
is to be struck out with costs to be assessed.
The appellant is also ordered to pay the costs of today's hearing which were caused solely by his dilatoriness.
