REASONS FOR JUDGMENT
1 Proceeding numbers N2382 of 2003, N2386 of 2003 and N2693 of 2003 were commenced in the High Court of Australia in May 2003, by the filing of an affidavit by the solicitor for the applicant, Mr Jyoti Bharati, together with a draft order nisi. The affidavit annexes copies of a decision of a delegate of the Minister for Immigration & Multicultural & Indigenous Affairs (‘the Minister’) and the Refugee Review Tribunal (‘the Tribunal’) refusing and confirming the decision to refuse protection visas.
2 The affidavit discloses no evidence to support any of the relief claimed in the draft order nisi. Following remitter of the proceedings to this Court, no further step has been taken by the applicants to endeavour to demonstrate a cause of action. Each of the matters is before me for callover today. Mr Bharati indicated that he required further time to get instructions. He was unable to indicate what would happen during that time or the nature of any evidence that was likely to be filed.
3 The Minister asks that the application for order nisi be dealt with today. In the circumstances, I consider it is appropriate to accede to the Minister’s request.
