THORNS

v

THE STATE OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA

[2023] HCASL 56
P4/2023

1. An extension of time is required for this application to proceed. This application for special leave to appeal from a judgment of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Western Australia (Mazza, Mitchell and Beech JJA) does not identify any reason to doubt the correctness of the decision of the Court of Appeal. The decision of the Court of Appeal is plainly correct. An appeal to this Court would have no prospects of success. It would therefore be futile to grant an extension of time. The application should be dismissed.

2. 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.
