- HCAL855/2019
The application for extension of time to set down the appeal is dismissed because the notice of appeal had already been served in time, the remedy sought (extension to set down) must be sought from the Court of Appeal, and the intended appeal has no reasonable prospect of success; the Request for Surrender is not a statutorily required supporting document and there is no evidential basis to impugn the Authority to Proceed or Committal Order; death penalty concerns are for the Chief Executive under the surrender process, not for the Court of Committal.
