TRANSCRIPT OF PROCEEDINGS

AT CANBERRA ON WEDNESDAY, 2 AUGUST 2006, AT 9.52 AM

Copyright in the High Court of Australia

HAYNE J:   The applicant, a citizen of China, seeks special leave to appeal against the orders of a single judge of the Federal Court of Australia (Sackville J) exercising the appellate jurisdiction of that Court. By those orders, Sackville 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), in respect of a decision of the Refugee Review Tribunal affirming the decision of a delegate of the Minister to refuse 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 applicant’s written submissions in support of the application for special leave raise no arguable grounds for the grant of special leave.  We see no reason to doubt the correctness of the decision of Sackville 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 9.53 AM THE MATTER WAS CONCLUDED
