DZAEG v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2016] FCA 194

DZAEG v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2016] FCA 194

The application for extension of time was dismissed because the proposed grounds of appeal had no prospects of success. The alleged error concerning the applicant's claimed detention raised factual matters for the Tribunal and did not disclose jurisdictional error; the Tribunal had considered the applicant's claims and country information in a careful and detailed way and had not taken a blanket or pre-judged approach to credibility.
