SCHMIDT

v

THE QUEEN

[2018] HCASL 263
B27/2018

1. The applicant requires an extension of time in which to appeal from the judgment of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Queensland (McMurdo JA, Fraser JA and Jackson J agreeing) dismissing the applicant's appeal against conviction and refusing the applicant leave to appeal against sentence on a count of conspiring with others to traffic in a commercial quantity of a controlled drug, namely cocaine, contrary to ss 11.5(1) and 302.2(1) of the Criminal Code (Cth). It would be futile, however, to grant the extension sought. There is no reason to doubt the correctness of the Court of Appeal's judgment.

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.
