SIGALLA

v

The QUEEN

[2022] HCASL 166
S73/2022

1. The applicant seeks special leave to appeal from a decision of the Court of Criminal Appeal of the Supreme Court of New South Wales.

2. An extension of time is necessary to enable this application to proceed. As to the first proposed ground of appeal, the decision of the Court of Criminal Appeal is plainly correct. The second proposed ground of appeal is an unsuitable vehicle for the grant of special leave. Accordingly, special leave should be refused. That being so, it would be futile to grant the required extension of time.

3. 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.
