The application to adjourn was dismissed because the interests of justice and public interest in prompt resolution, combined with the rehearing nature of the appeal (allowing the High Court to determine the issues on the record), outweighed the appellant's arguments for delay; there was no sufficient prejudice to the Commissioner and the alleged bias had already been dismissed by lower judges making further adjournment unjustified.
