He v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2018] FCA 1846

The appeal failed because the only ground advanced, that the Appellant met all conditions for the student visa, was not an available ground in the Federal Court; the Appellant had not specified exceptional reasons to the delegate or appeared at the Tribunal hearing to advance them, making the Tribunal's affirmance of the refusal inevitable, and no error was identified in the Tribunal's consideration of the visa application.
