CRIMINAL CODE 1899 - SECT 671H
Duties of registrar
671H Duties of registrar
(1) The registrar shall take all necessary steps for obtaining a hearing of
any appeals or applications, notice of which is given to the registrar, and
shall obtain and lay before the Court in proper form all documents, exhibits,
and other things relating to the proceedings in the court of trial which
appear necessary for the proper determination of the appeal or application.
(2) If it appears to the registrar that any notice of appeal or of application
for leave to appeal against a conviction or sentence does not show any
substantial ground of appeal, the registrar may refer the appeal to the Court
for summary determination; and the Court may thereupon, if it considers that
the appeal is frivolous or vexatious, dismiss the appeal summarily without
calling upon any person to attend the hearing.
(3) The registrar shall
furnish the necessary forms and instructions in relation to notices of appeals
or notices of application to any person who demands the same, and to officers
of courts, the chief executive (corrective services), and to such other
officers or persons as the registrar thinks fit, and the chief executive
(corrective services) shall cause such forms and instructions to be placed at
the disposal of prisoners desiring to appeal or to make any application, and
shall cause any such notice given by a prisoner for whom the chief executive
(corrective services) has responsibility to be forwarded on behalf of the
prisoner to the registrar.
