- Court
- District Court
The Court held the appellant failed to establish extenuating circumstances under s135(3) that affected his ability to lodge a review within three months from the decision date; the appellant was capable of acting, the wife's oversight and late instruction of an advocate do not satisfy s135(3), and therefore the late application could not be accepted and the appeal must be dismissed.
