TRANSCRIPT OF PROCEEDINGS

AT CANBERRA ON THURSDAY, 8 SEPTEMBER 2005, AT 9.19 AM

Copyright in the High Court of Australia

HAYNE J:   The applicant seeks special leave to appeal against orders of a single judge of the Federal Court of Australia (Tamberlin J) dismissing the applicant’s appeal against orders of the Federal Magistrates Court.  The Federal Magistrates Court had dismissed the applicant’s application for constitutional writs and associated relief directed to the Refugee Review Tribunal.

Because the applicant is unrepresented the application for special leave falls to be dealt with under rule 41.10 of the High Court Rules 2004.

The complaints which the applicant sought to make in the Federal Magistrates Court about the Tribunal’s decision had been agitated by him in earlier litigation he had instituted in the Federal Court of Australia.  The applicant’s earlier application to the Federal Court had been dismissed and his appeal to the Full Court of the Federal Court had failed.

We are not to be taken as endorsing all of the reasons given by Tamberlin J for making the orders which are the subject of the present application for special leave.  Nonetheless, an appeal to this Court would enjoy no prospect of success.

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 9.21 AM THE MATTER WAS CONCLUDED
