THORNBURY
v
THE QUEEN
[2020] HCASL 10
B54/2019
An extension of time is required to enable this application for special leave to proceed. The application is an inappropriate vehicle to consider principles concerning the effect upon sentencing of provisions concerning declarations of serious violent offences. The proposed appeal from the decision of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Queensland (Boddice J; Sofronoff P and Morrison JA agreeing) has insufficient prospects of success to warrant the grant of special leave. Accordingly, it would be futile to grant the extension of time. The application should be dismissed.
Pursuant to r 41.08.1 of the High Court Rules 2004 (Cth), we direct the Registrar to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing the application.
