PLACE: SYDNEY
REASONS FOR JUDGMENT 1 The Court has been advised that on 8 May, two days ago, the appellant escaped the custody that he was then in, at what is generally known as the Villawood Detention Centre, and has not been apprehended or found. He has not therefore attended Court today for the hearing of the appeal. The respondent asks for the dismissal of the appeal in his absence and the Court will grant that order. We have not, of course, heard argument on the appeal. The order of the Court is that the appeal will be dismissed. [AFTER DISCUSSION] 2 The Court also orders that the appellant pay the respondent's costs. I certify that the preceding two (2) numbered paragraphs are a true copy of the Reasons for Judgment herein of the Honourable Justices Einfeld, Lehane and Hely.
