WESTERN AUSTRALIA DISTRICT REGISTRY WAD 202 of 2007
BETWEEN: WANNAKUWATTEMITIWADUGE LLOYD NIRMALEEN FERNANDO
REASONS FOR JUDGMENT 1 This application was commenced by the applicant, Mr Fernando, on 15 October 2007 before Mr John Robert Broderick Ley was appointed by the Court as Mr Fernando's tutor for the conduct of this proceeding. 2 In this proceeding, as in the appeal proceeding No WAD 103 of 2007 and in application No WAD 111 of 2007, Mr Fernando claims compensation in respect of the three year and three month period during which he says he was unlawfully detained in immigration detention. 3 The same considerations as described in my reasons for decision in Fernando v Minister for Immigration and Citizenship (No 3) [2008] FCA 1217 apply to this case. For the same reasons as are set out in those reasons for decision, I dismiss this application filed on 15 October 2007. I will hear the parties on costs. I certify that the preceding three (3) numbered paragraphs are a true copy of the Reasons for Judgment herein of the Honourable Justice Siopis.
