Public Transport Corporation v Waters [1990] HCATrans 133
[1990] HCATrans 133
CaseChat Overview and Summary
The Public Transport Corporation sought special leave to appeal to the High Court of Australia against a decision concerning respondents P. Walters, J. Harrowell, J. Asinakipoulos, M. Cooper, K. Ball, M. Stewart, D. Blyth, R. Berger, and E. Meehan. The specific nature of the dispute that led to the application for special leave is not detailed in the provided transcript.
The primary legal issue before the High Court was whether to grant the Public Transport Corporation's application for an adjournment of its application for special leave to appeal. The parties also sought to resolve the issue of costs associated with this adjournment.
The High Court, by consent of the parties, ordered that the application for special leave stand over generally. The Court further ordered that the respondents' costs of the day be costs in the cause, meaning these costs would be determined at a later stage of the proceedings. The matter was adjourned sine die.
