Paszkiewicz v Minister for Home Affairs [2019] FCAFC 198

The Court held there was no error by the Tribunal or primary judge; any failure to specifically address the contentions regarding financial support, contact with paternal family, or support for the mother did not amount to jurisdictional error, as these matters were not substantial, clearly articulated arguments relying on established facts in the context of the material as a whole. Thus, the appeal was dismissed.
