JUDGMENT
APPLICANT appeared on his own behalf
MR S A McLEOD of counsel (instructed by Queensland Police Service)
McPHERSON JA: On the basis of something that I am reported to have said on an occasion when this matter was informally before us on an earlier occasion, I am asked to disqualify myself on the ground I think that I have already formed a final opinion on the outcome of at least one of the issues in this case.
Having considered what was said in that regard and discussed the matter with my colleagues, I have decided that I should not disqualify on that ground.
