Litigation History

EventCitation or FileDateNotes
Primary Judgment[2006] QSC 24507 Sep 2006Application for judicial review of Corrective Services decision issuing a maximum security order; not been successful in showing that there was no evidence or other material to justify the making of the decision; nor that making the decision was an improper exercise of power with the result that the exercise was so unreasonable that no reasonable person could so exercise the power: Atkinson J.
Appeal Determined (QCA)[2006] QCA 56822 Dec 2006Appeal dismissed with costs; the primary judge was entitled to conclude that the appellant's containment in a maximum security facility under the s 47 Corrective Services Act order was not inhumane in the context of his necessarily diminished entitlements because of his imprisonment whilst subject to a lawfully made order under s 47: McMurdo P, Holmes JA and Chesterman J.
Special Leave Refused (HCA)[2007] HCATrans 15424 Apr 2007Special leave refused; not now right to permit the applicant to agitate the availability of ancillary relief when it is acknowledged that the principal relief cannot be granted: Kirby, Hayne and Crennan JJ.
