YOUNG
v
DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC PROSECUTIONS & ANOR
[2023] HCASL 121
S56/2023
The applicant seeks special leave to appeal from a decision of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of New South Wales (Mitchelmore JA, Leeming and Brereton JJA agreeing) dismissing the applicant's summons seeking review of decisions of the Local Court of New South Wales and the District Court of New South Wales under s 69 of the Supreme Court Act 1970 (NSW) and Pt 5 of the Crimes (Appeal and Review) Act 2001 (NSW). The District Court had dismissed the applicant's appeal from the Local Court against conviction and sentence in relation to four charges of common assault and one charge of intentionally or recklessly damaging property.
The applicant has not identified a question of principle of general importance sufficient to warrant a grant of special leave to appeal and otherwise advances no arguable ground of appeal against the decision of the Court of Appeal. An appeal to this Court does not enjoy any prospects of success. Special leave should be refused.
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.
