NEW SOUTH WALES DISTRICT REGISTRY N 106 OF 2001
BETWEEN: MILAGROS MARCELO
APPLICANT
AND: MINISTER FOR IMMIGRATION AND MULTICULTURAL AFFAIRS
RESPONDENT
JUDGE: GYLES J
DATE: 19 APRIL 2001
PLACE: SYDNEY
REASONS FOR JUDGMENT (EX TEMPORE) 1 In this matter the history is set out in an affidavit of Mr Cureton of 19 April 2001 and service of communications has been established by affidavits from a process server. On its face, it is a straightforward matter for the application of O 10, r 3(2) having in mind the failure of the applicant in the case to appear as detailed in that evidence. 2 My concern lies in the fact that the second directions hearing was listed before the Registrar at 2.15 pm on 15 March 2001 but, for reasons which I cannot ascertain, and which the solicitor for the respondent is unable to assist with, that matter was not listed on that day and it was listed for directions before me on 29 March 2001. I am satisfied however that, notwithstanding that circumstance, appropriate notice has been given to the applicant as to the directions hearing today and there is no explanation for non-appearance. It is not the first time and it is therefore a matter appropriate for an order to be made under O 10, r 3(2). 3 The solicitor for the respondent indicated that notice would be given pursuant to O 35, r 7. I dismiss this application and I order the applicant to pay the costs of the respondent. I certify that the preceding three (3) numbered paragraphs are a true copy of the Reasons for Judgment herein of the Honourable Justice Gyles.
