64 Further application for warrant after refusal
(cf [Search Warrants Act 1985](/view/html/repealed/current/act-1985-037), s 12C)
> > (1) If an application by a person for a warrant is refused by an eligible issuing officer, that person (or any other person who is aware of the application) may not make a further application for the same warrant to that or any other eligible issuing officer unless the further application provides additional information that justifies the making of the further application.
>
> > (2) However, in the case of a warrant other than a covert search warrant, a further application may be made to a Judge of the Local Court following a refusal to issue the warrant by an eligible issuing officer who is not a Judge of the Local Court whether or not additional information is provided in the further application. Only one such further application may be made in any particular case.
