- Supreme Court
Leave to appeal was refused because the statutory criteria for a direct appeal to the Supreme Court were not met: Powell J had not declined leave but required proper formal applications and service, statutory provisions (s 69) exclude Supreme Court jurisdiction over appeals from High Court refusals of leave and interlocutory decisions, there were no exceptional circumstances or miscarriage of justice, and ex parte relief was unwarranted.
