If you were in custody and you lodged a supreme court bail application (self-represented) with corrective services, and they did not file it on the date intentionally, and there was a backlog of 10-12 weeks, so you had to refile the application that period of time later after you became aware they did not lodge it in the first instance, would you have a false imprisonment claim against corrective services?

Edit: You now have done an FOI request and they DID have the supreme court bail application at the initial date, they just never filed it.

They always claimed they never received the initial application previously after I complained.

Any thoughts? Please help.
