TRANSCRIPT OF PROCEEDINGS

Copyright in the High Court of Australia

HAYNE J:   The applicant seeks special leave to appeal against orders of the Federal Court of Australia (Moore J) dismissing, for failure to attend, his application for leave to appeal against orders of the Federal Magistrates Court.

The proceedings which gave rise to the application for leave to appeal to the Federal Court are the third set of proceedings instituted by the applicant in relation to the decision of the Refugee Review Tribunal to affirm refusal of a protection visa.  The first set of proceedings, commenced in this Court and remitted to the Federal Court, were dismissed.  The second set of proceedings, commenced in the Federal Magistrates Court, were dismissed at first instance and an appeal to the Federal Court and application for special leave to appeal to this Court were each dismissed.

This application for special leave should also be dismissed.  Neither the decision of Moore J nor the actual decision of the Federal Magistrates Court dismissing these third proceedings is attended by doubt.

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 9.29 AM THE MATTER WAS CONCLUDED
