- High Court
The application was dismissed because the complaint about licence removal and a Notice of Prohibition was not appropriately advanced as a habeas corpus application; the Court concluded such measures are unlikely to constitute 'detention' for habeas purposes and, in any event, s14(1A)(b) permits refusal where a writ is not the appropriate procedure.
