REASONS FOR JUDGMENT
1 On 9 September 2005, for reasons given on that day, the Court ordered that the appeal in this proceeding be dismissed pursuant to s 25(2B)(bb)(ii) of the Federal Court of Australia Act 1976 (Cth), on the basis that there was no appearance for the appellant. On 30 September 2005, the appellant filed a notice of motion seeking an order that the order of 9 September 2005 be set aside and that the matter be re-listed for hearing.
2 Since that order was an interlocutory order, it would be open to the Court to make such an order pursuant to O 35 r 7. However, when the matter was called on for hearing today, being the time appointed for the hearing of the motion, there was no appearance for the applicant. The Minister therefore asks that the motion be dismissed. That is the appropriate course.
