REASONS FOR JUDGMENT

WILCOX J:

1                     The applicant for leave to appeal has not appeared.  No explanation has been given for his non-appearance.  It appears that he has not attempted to contact the Court.

2                     I note that the proceeding in the Federal Magistrates Court was summarily dismissed due to the fact that no reasonable cause of action was disclosed. 

3                     Having regard to the applicant's failure to appear to prosecute the application for leave to appeal, I order that the application for leave to appeal be dismissed with costs.



I certify that the preceding three (3) numbered paragraphs are a true copy of the Reasons for Judgment herein of the Honourable Justice Wilcox.
