MZYLT v Minister for Immigration and Citizenship [2012] FCA 205

MZYLT v Minister for Immigration and Citizenship [2012] FCA 205

The applicant did not articulate any basis for the proposed procedural fairness or natural justice grounds, those grounds were not raised below and no leave had been sought to raise them on appeal. Having reviewed the Tribunal decision, the Court was not satisfied that such errors had been committed or that the Federal Magistrates Court made any appealable error. The proposed appeal had no prospect of success, making an extension of time futile.
