Sassoon v Rose

In *Sassoon v Rose*, the applicant, Ms Sassoon, sought referral for pro bono legal assistance in relation to an appeal. The respondent was Rose.

The primary legal issue before the Court was whether the applicant had demonstrated sufficient prospects of success in her appeal to warrant the Court ordering referral for pro bono assistance.

Barrett JA considered the application and the material before the Court. His Honour concluded that no prospects of a successful appeal had been shown. Accordingly, the application for pro bono legal assistance was refused.
