| ANDDEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS |
| Court:Elias CJ, Blanchard and Tipping JJ |
| Counsel:Applicant in Person |
| Judgment:14 December 2011 |
JUDGMENT OF THE COURT
The application for leave to appeal is dismissed.
REASONS
Mr Terry has failed to file submissions in support of his application for leave.It is evident from the judgment of Miller J in the High Court,[1] from which Mr Terry is trying to appeal directly to this Court, that there is no prospect of the appeal succeeding, and certainly no basis for a direct appeal.The conviction was for failing to report for community work.Mr Terry was convicted and discharged.The issue is one of fact only and the criteria for leave are not met.
