Paite v State of Tasmania

PAITE

v

STATE OF TASMANIA

[2019] HCASL 292
H2/2019

  1. The applicant seeks special leave to appeal from the judgment of the Court of Criminal Appeal of the Supreme Court of Tasmania (Pearce J and Martin AJ, Estcourt J dissenting) dismissing his appeal against his conviction for one count of rape.

  2. The application raises no question of principle which it would be in the interests of justice for this Court to consider and there is no reason to doubt the correctness of the Court of Criminal Appeal's decision.  An appeal to this Court would not enjoy sufficient prospects of success to warrant the grant of special leave. 

  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.
