The High Court may recall and amend its earlier judgment to correct errors of date and intituling that are not material to the outcome; transfers occurring more than six years before commencement are time‑barred and that legal conclusion was unaffected by the clerical errors.

Court

High Court

The detainees were lawfully detained pursuant to ss 59 and 60 of the Immigration Act 1987, there were no outstanding immigration applications or appeals and no impediment to removal, therefore the habeas corpus application lacked merit and was dismissed; the purported representative had no standing but was permitted to speak and the intituling was amended to substitute the Chief Executive of the Department of Corrections as defendant.
