REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

(Revised from Transcript)

  1. In the matter before me today, I note on the Court file that the applicant attended the first Court date on 10 August 2004 and signed short minutes of order that became orders of the Court and that the substantive application, notice of objection to competency be listed for directions at 10:15 a.m. on 25 October 2004 before me at John Maddison Tower. 

  2. The matter has been called outside this Court and the matter has also been called downstairs in the foyer of the John Maddison Tower Building and there was no appearance by the applicant.

  3. I also note that it is now a little bit past 10:30 a.m. 

  4. I am satisfied that the applicant has been given an opportunity to appear today and he has not done so and it is therefore appropriate, in all these circumstances, that the matter be dismissed.
