seeking leave to be joined as a party under s 84 (5) of the Native Title Act 1993 must file a Notice of Motion
and supporting affidavit
detailing the nature of their interest in the main application and how
that interest may be affected by a determination in the proceedings.
Unless the Court
otherwise orders, the person seeking to be joined must serve copies of
the Notice of Motion and Supporting affidavit on the Applicant to the
main application and on the relevant State or Territory government.
Generally the
Registrar will order that the person be accepted as a party to the
application in the following terms:

The
Court order that:
1.The person named in the
schedule to the order be accepted as a party to the application;
2. The Court may order that the person named cease to be a party for
any reason;
3. That the right of any party to the proceeding to apply to the Court
that the person named cease to be a party, is not affected by this
order.
Unless it is otherwise
ordered the Registry will give notice of the order that has been made
to all parties to the main application.
If it appears that there
may be a question as to the entitlement of the person seeking to be
joined, the matter will be referred to a judge for hearing.
