AYM15 v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2016] FCA 583

AYM15 v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2016] FCA 583

The application was dismissed because the applicant did not fully explain the delay beyond the period he mistakenly believed applied, and the proposed appeal had no prospects of success. The proposed grounds did not identify arguable error by the primary judge, the complaints about Sri Lanka, credibility and the applicant's brother sought impermissible merits review, and there was no arguable basis to disturb the finding that the Tribunal had not breached procedural fairness or otherwise committed jurisdictional error.
