v

Newett

[2022] HCASL 135
B27/2022

1. The applicant requires an extension of time within which to file an application for special leave to appeal from a decision of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 1) Appellate Jurisdiction (Aldridge, Hogan and Harper JJ) to dismiss an appeal from a decision of the Family Court of Australia (Baumann J).

2. There is no reason to doubt the correctness of the decision of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 1) Appellate Jurisdiction.  An appeal to this Court would enjoy no prospects of success.  It would therefore be futile to grant the extension of time sought and the application for special leave to appeal should be refused.

3. 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.
