Court of Appeal dismisses appeal from High Court, and affirms refusal of judicial review, directing the Central Office of the High Court to process the appellant's four appeals against Circuit Court orders dismissing his data protection complaints. The Court of Appeal found that the appellant's application for judicial review was out of time and that there was no application for an extension of time nor any evidential basis for the court to grant one. The original decision of the Circuit Court, which had dismissed the appellant's appeals against decisions of the Data Protection Commission, was thus left standing.
