REASONS FOR JUDGMENT
1 On 24 April 2006, an application for leave to appeal was filed in this Court against a judgment of a Federal Magistrate of 12 April 2006. The judgment of the Federal Magistrate concerned an application filed in that Court on 23 January 2006 seeking an order that the respondents show cause why a remedy should not be granted in the exercise of that court's jurisdiction under s 476 of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth) in respect of a decision of the Refugee Review Tribunal given on 15 January 1999. The application to the Federal Magistrates Court was preceded by litigation both in this Court and the High Court.
2 The applicant has not appeared today. The applicant was notified of the hearing today by letter sent to his address for service. That letter was dated 2 June 2006 and was sent on or about that date. I am satisfied that the applicant has been made aware of these proceedings and has not appeared. The appropriate order is that the application be dismissed and the applicant pay the costs of the first respondent. I order those costs be fixed in the sum of $1300.
