Procedural Posture

Application for Leave to Appeal / Leave to Appeal From Interlocutory Practice and Procedure Orders

  1. 1 ['Whether leave should be granted to appeal an order setting the matter down for a three day in-person hearing in Melbourne.' "Whether the primary judge's discretionary practice and procedure order was attended with sufficient doubt to warrant reconsideration by a Full Court." 'Whether substantial injustice would result if leave to appeal were refused.']

Ratio Decidendi

The orders setting the matter down for a three day in-person hearing in Melbourne were discretionary practice and procedure orders that did not determine substantive rights. Mr Parthy did not show that the orders were attended with sufficient doubt, involved discretionary error, or would cause substantial injustice if leave were refused. It remained open to him to seek a longer hearing before the primary judge and there was insufficient basis to disturb the requirement for an in-person hearing in Melbourne.

Court Disposition

Application for leave to appeal dismissed.
