REEVES

v

STATE OF NEW SOUTH WALES

[2024] HCASL 251
S77/2024

1. The applicant seeks special leave to appeal from part of the judgment of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of New South Wales (Bell CJ, White and Stern JJA), dismissing an appeal by the applicant, and allowing a cross-appeal by the respondent, against judgments of the District Court of New South Wales (Abadee DCJ). 

2. There is no reason to doubt the correctness of the decision of the Court of Appeal. Moreover, the proposed appeal is not an appropriate vehicle to determine the questions of law raised.

3. Special leave to appeal is refused with costs.
