RITA CAMERON
v
QANTAS AIRWAYS LTD & ANOR
[2012] HCASL 7
S327/2011

1. The applicant seeks special leave to appeal against orders of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of New South Wales (Macfarlan and Whealy JJA) dismissing the applicant's application for leave to appeal against orders of the Supreme Court of New South Wales (Latham J). Latham J ordered that an amended statement of claim filed by the applicant seeking damages and other relief from the respondents be struck out pursuant to r 14.28 of the Uniform Civil Procedure Rules (NSW), that leave not be granted to replead, and that the proceedings be summarily dismissed under r 13.4 of the Uniform Civil Procedure Rules.

2. As the applicant is unrepresented, the application falls to be dealt with under r 41.10 of the High Court Rules 2004.

3. The applicant's written submissions advance no ground or argument which could justify a grant of special leave.  The application concerns a matter of practice and procedure and an exercise of discretion in accordance with settled principles.  An appeal to this Court would enjoy no prospects of success.  

4. Pursuant to r 41.10.5 we direct the Registrar to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing the application.
