CGN15 v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2017] FCA 1035

The appeal was dismissed because the appellant's ground of appeal did not identify any appealable error in the Federal Circuit Court judgment and did not demonstrate any jurisdictional error in the Tribunal's decision. The further correspondence and materials did not particularise error, and to the extent the appellant sought to re-agitate arguments advanced below, he identified no error in the primary judge's findings.

'Whether further documents and submissions relied on by the appellant could assist the appeal.']
