Procedural Posture

Application for Leave to Appeal and for an Extension of Time From Summary Dismissal of an Application for Review of an RRT Decision / Hearing of Application for Leave to Appeal and Extension of Time in the Federal Court of Australia

Legal Issues

  1. 1 ["Whether leave to appeal should be granted from the Federal Magistrate's summary dismissal of the application for review."

'Whether alleged fresh evidence could justify disturbing the RRT decision.']

Ratio Decidendi

Court Disposition

Application for leave to appeal dismissed with costs.
