Leave to appeal was refused because the applicant did not demonstrate arguable legal error in Mortimer J's assessment of the serious question to be tried, the low prospects of success, or the balance of convenience. The decision was not attended with sufficient doubt to warrant reconsideration by a Full Court, and substantial injustice would not result if leave were refused.
