Quick Take

An adjournment of an application to set aside a freezing notice under the Criminal Property Confiscation Act 2000 (WA) pending the determination of criminal charges that may result in a drug trafficker declaration is a sensible interlocutory case management decision that will not ordinarily warrant the grant of leave to appeal.
