Salby v Macquarie University

SALBY

v

MACQUARIE UNIVERSITY & ANOR

[2018] HCASL 189
M54/2018

1. The applicant requires an extension of time within which to file the application for special leave to appeal.  The applicant has not identified a question of principle of general importance sufficient to warrant a grant of special leave to appeal and otherwise advances no arguable ground of appeal against the decision of the Federal Court of Australia (Flick J) dismissing the applicant's appeal from the decision of the Federal Circuit Court of Australia (Judge Driver).  An appeal to this Court would enjoy no prospect of success.  It would therefore be futile to grant the extension that is sought.  Special leave should be refused. 

2. 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.
