COA17 v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2018] FCA 1330

COA17 v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2018] FCA 1330

The applicant failed to demonstrate any jurisdictional error or legal error in the Federal Circuit Court's refusal to reinstate his application for judicial review. The primary judge correctly exercised discretion according to law, considered relevant materials, and was entitled to find the applicant was notified of the hearing date and that the grounds for review lacked sufficient merit. Consequently, the threshold for leave to appeal was not satisfied.
