Murphy v Turner-Jones & Anor

MURPHY
v

TURNER-JONES & ANOR
[2024] HCASL 214
B31/2024

1. The applicant requires a substantial extension of time within which to seek special leave to appeal from a judgment of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Queensland (Bradley J, Morrison and Dalton JJA agreeing), dismissing an appeal against a judgment of the Supreme Court of Queensland (Crow J), which had awarded damages in favour of the applicant against the second respondent for personal injuries arising from a motor vehicle accident.

2. No question of general principle is sufficiently articulated, or otherwise falls for determination, in this application. Further, there is no reason to doubt the correctness of the decision of the Court of Appeal. Accordingly, it would be futile to grant an extension of time.

3. Special leave to appeal is refused.
