HAYNE J:   The applicants in these applications are husband and wife.  Each seeks special leave to appeal against orders of a single judge of the Federal Court of Australia dismissing appeals each had brought against orders of the Federal Magistrates Court.  The Federal Magistrates Court had dismissed applications for constitutional writs and associated relief directed to the Refugee Review Tribunal which had affirmed decisions to refuse to grant the applicants protection visas.

Because each applicant is unrepresented, the application for special leave falls to be dealt with under rule 41.10.  It is convenient to deal with the applications together.

The decisions of the courts below turned upon the course taken in, and the material that was before, the Tribunal.  There is no reason to doubt the correctness of those decisions.

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

AT 9.34 AM THE MATTERS WERE CONCLUDED
