Pyaneeandee v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2017] FCA 1496

Pyaneeandee v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2017] FCA 1496

The application was dismissed because, although the short delay was explained and caused no prejudice, the applicants failed to show reasonable prospects of success or sufficient doubt as to the correctness of the Federal Circuit Court's interlocutory dismissal. The proposed grounds were unparticularised or did not identify error by the primary judge, no procedural unfairness by the Tribunal was apparent, and the Tribunal had in fact considered the illness of the first applicant's husband; any complaint about the weight given to that matter went to merits rather than jurisdictional error.
