JUDGE ROBIN QC
No 4051 of 2012
JOSHUA WILKINSON | Appellant |

|
JOEL ANDREW RISSON | Respondent |
BRISBANE
DATE 27/02/2013
DAY 1
ORDER
CATCHWORDS | Justices Act 1886 s 229 |
HIS HONOUR: List the appeal for hearings on 18 March 2013 notwithstanding lack of an appellant’s outline, the respondent to be at liberty by to make applications then to have it struck out for want of prosecution under s 229 of the Justice’s Act 1886. Dispense the filing of the certificate as to readiness. Those orders are made in circumstances where the appellant is now at liberty in the community, apparently on parole, and has indicated in discussions with the Registrar, that he doesn't propose to pursue the appeal. Unfortunately, he has failed to co-operate by signing and returning the notice of discontinuance, which the Registrar has forwarded to him. These orders are the only way of bringing about an equivalent outcome, in light of Gamble v Davidson [2000] 1 Qd R 510.
Thank you.
