Once the Court of Appeal has determined an appeal against conviction on the merits under s 668D of the Criminal Code 1899 (Qld), the right of appeal is exhausted and the Court has no jurisdiction to entertain a further appeal. The slip rule under s 8(1) of the Supreme Court of Queensland Act 1991 (Qld) permits reconsideration of an interlocutory order only where the Court acted on erroneous information, not where the applicant simply wishes to re-agitate the merits. Any further challenge must be by way of special leave to the High Court.
