HAYNE J:   The applicant, a citizen of Bangladesh, seeks special leave to appeal against orders of a single judge of the Federal Court of Australia (Hely J) exercising the appellate jurisdiction of that Court. By those orders, Hely J dismissed the applicant’s appeal against orders of the Federal Magistrates Court dismissing an application for relief under s 39B of the Judiciary Act 1903 (Cth) directed to the Refugee Review Tribunal and the Minister in respect of a decision of the Tribunal affirming the refusal by a delegate of the Minister to grant the applicant a protection visa.

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

The written submissions filed in support of this application for special leave follow a common form adopted in many other applications and do not raise any arguable ground for the grant of special leave.  In any event, we see no reason to doubt the correctness of the decision of Hely J.

Pursuant to r 41.10.5 we direct the Registrar to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing the application. I publish that disposition.

AT 9.25 AM THE MATTER WAS CONCLUDED
