The Court refused extension of time because the applicant had a substantial unexplained delay (over 1.5 months), failed to identify viable, particularised grounds of appeal or to demonstrate error in the Leave Decision, raised new complaints not ventilated below, and there was no prospect of success or prejudice to justify extending time; accordingly the summons to appeal was dismissed.
22 Apr 2026
Application dismissed because the applicant offered no satisfactory explanation for the delay, advanced no arguable grounds of appeal or judicial review, and therefore failed to demonstrate a reasonable prospect of success or any error of law by the judge; extension of time refused.
25 Mar 2026
The summons for extension of time was dismissed because the applicant failed to provide a reasonable explanation for the delay and failed to demonstrate any specific or particularised grounds showing a reasonable prospect of success in the intended judicial review; general template allegations were insufficient, therefore no extension of time was justified.
13 Nov 2025
Dismissal of the application was warranted because the short delay of seven days was unexplained or inadequately explained and, critically, the proposed appeal had no real prospect of success since the applicant failed to particularise alleged unfairness or identify additional documents that would alter the result; the applicant had been given opportunity at the earlier hearing and added nothing of substance.
19 Aug 2025
Extension of time refused because applicant failed to demonstrate any arguable ground or reasonable prospect of success on the intended judicial review; the Board's factual findings and consideration of danger were not shown to be legally wrong.
24 Jun 2025
The applicant's delay in seeking to appeal was inexcusable (decision was posted to her address and ignorance of rules is not a justification) and, because of that inexcusable delay, she was required to show a real prospect of success on the merits; she failed to show any arguable error of law, procedural unfairness or irrationality in the Board's decision, so the Court refused to exercise its discretion to extend time to appeal.
16 Oct 2024
The applicant's delay of over ten months was inexcusable, he failed to demonstrate a real prospect of success on the merits, and the proposed new fact‑sensitive grounds were not previously raised; therefore no extension of time to appeal was justified and the summons was dismissed.
18 Jan 2024
Refusal to extend time: a one-day delay was insignificant and unexplained by independent evidence, and the applicant failed to provide proposed grounds or identify any legal or procedural error in the Board's decision such that there was no reasonable prospect of success; extension would be futile, therefore refused.
4 Oct 2023
Leave to apply for judicial review was granted and time extended because it was reasonably arguable that the Board failed to take the merits of the proposed appeal into account under s37ZT(2)(b) when refusing to allow late filing and/or failed to give adequate reasons why the merits did not amount to special circumstances, meeting the threshold for leave despite substantial delay.
17 Aug 2023
Extension of time was refused because the delay (over 4 years 5 months) was inordinate, the applicant failed to provide a good reason for the delay or to identify arguable grounds of appeal demonstrating a reasonable prospect of success, and therefore granting an extension would be futile.
