TRANSCRIPT OF PROCEEDINGS

AT CANBERRA ON THURSDAY, 26 MAY 2005, AT 1.46 PM

Copyright in the High Court of Australia

HAYNE J: The applicant seeks special leave to appeal from a decision of the Federal Court refusing the applicant leave to appeal from the decision of a Federal Magistrate. The Federal Court held that the draft notice of appeal upon which the applicant would wish to rely if he were permitted to appeal to the Federal Court was meaningless and that the decision of the Federal Magistrate was clearly correct for the reasons that he gave. There is no reason to doubt the correctness of the decision of the Federal Court. It is unnecessary to consider whether an appeal to this Court would be competent (Federal Court of Australia Act 1976 (Cth), s 33(2)). The application for special leave must therefore be dismissed.

Because the applicant is unrepresented, this application for special leave falls to be dealt with in accordance with rule 41.10 of the High Court Rules 2004. Pursuant to rule 41.10.5 we direct the Registrar to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing this application. I publish that disposition.

AT 1.47 PM THE MATTER WAS CONCLUDED
