RESPONDENT
JUDGE: GYLES J
DATE: 31 OCTOBER 2005
PLACE: SYDNEY
REASONS FOR JUDGMENT 1 The circumstances of this matter have been outlined by the solicitor for the respondent. They involve several fixtures, this last fixture both having been fixed and notified with a view to bringing the matter to a head. I am satisfied that s 25(2B)(bb)(ii) of the Federal Court of Australia Act 1976 (Cth) gives me power to dismiss the proceeding. It is not entirely clear to me how O 52, particularly r 38 and r 38A, of the Federal Court Rules, interrelate to that provision. However, under the circumstances, I am satisfied that the failure to attend this hearing is an appropriate ground for dismissal. 2 I make orders in accordance with the short minutes of order which I have initialled and placed with the papers. I certify that the preceding two (2) numbered paragraphs are a true copy of the Reasons for Judgment herein of the Honourable Justice Gyles.
