TRANSCRIPT OF PROCEEDINGS

Copyright in the High Court of Australia

HAYNE J:   The applicant, a citizen of Sri Lanka, seeks special leave to appeal against orders of a single judge of the Federal Court of Australia (Finkelstein J). By those orders, Finkelstein J dismissed the applicant’s appeal against orders of the Federal Magistrates Court dismissing an application for orders under s 39B of the Judiciary Act 1903 (Cth) directed to the decision of the Refugee Review Tribunal affirming the decision of a delegate of the Minister to refuse the applicant a protection visa.

Because the applicant is unrepresented the application for special leave falls to be dealt with under r 41.10 of the High Court Rules 2004.

There is no reason to doubt the correctness of the decision of Finkelstein J.

Pursuant to r 41.10.5 we direct the Registrar to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing the application. I publish that disposition.

AT 9.22 AM THE MATTER WAS CONCLUDED
