CA No 14 of 2000

THE QUEEN

v.

IAN HAMILTON McCONNELL  

BRISBANE

..DATE 26/05/2000

ORDER

PINCUS JA:  This is an application which has been already adjourned once and a further adjournment is sought.  In the circumstances that both sides appear to want an adjournment, the Court is willing to adjourn the matter, but it must be said that it is hoped that no further adjournment will be necessary and that co-operation between the parties will ensure that it comes on for a final hearing next time.

When I say a final hearing, it is only an application for an extension of time, and the only issue, as Mr Justice Davies has pointed out with respect to the merits, is whether there is an arguable case.

The order will be that the application is adjourned to a date to be fixed.
