REASONS FOR JUDGMENT
1 This appeal was called on for hearing and there was no appearance by the Appellant. I am satisfied that the Appellant was aware that the appeal would be on for hearing at 2.15 pm on 23 February 2015 before me as stated in the Daily List. In addition, an unsuccessful attempt has been made to contact the Appellant on the mobile number that was provided to the First Respondent by the Appellant.
2 In these circumstances, it is appropriate, pursuant to s 25(2B)(bb)(ii) of the Federal Court of Australia Act 1976 (Cth) and r 36.75(1)(a)(i) of the Federal Court Rules 2011 (Cth), that the appeal be dismissed. I propose to order that the appeal to be dismissed with costs.
3 I should indicate that, as this is an order made in the absence of the Appellant, the Appellant can seek to reinstate the appeal upon the filing and serving of appropriate material.
I certify that the preceding three (3) numbered paragraphs are a true copy of the Reasons for Judgment herein of the Honourable Justice Middleton. |
