Rule 137 preserves the Federal Court's inherent powers but does not authorize the Court to set aside its prior judgment and re-hear an appeal merely because the applicant disputes the earlier decision on its merits; relief under r.137 is confined to exceptional circumstances (for example where a decision is a nullity due to improper constitution), and the present application, being a merits challenge, must be dismissed to preserve finality of proceedings.
