How Can I Appeal my Case to the High Court of Australia?

To appeal a case from the Court of Appeal to the High Court of Australia, you must first apply for permission (leave) from the High Court. Appeals to the High Court are highly technical and complex, as this is Australia’s highest court. If you believe an error or injustice occurred in your Court of Appeal case, it’s essential to consult an experienced lawyer who can assess the strength of your case and guide you through this challenging process. 

Important Considerations

Securing a full hearing in the High Court is highly challenging. The High Court only hears select criminal and sentencing appeals, typically when there’s a need to address inconsistencies in the law or resolve significant legal questions. 

Each case is carefully evaluated based on its unique facts. However, if your matter proceeds, be prepared for possible delays, as High Court hearings often take between 12 to 18 months due to the Court’s heavy caseload.
