SZTRT v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2014] FCA 1301

SZTRT v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2014] FCA 1301

Because no error was apparent in the Federal Circuit Court judgment, no jurisdictional error or procedural unfairness was apparent in the Tribunal's decision, and the applicant's proposed grounds of appeal lacked any prospects of success, it was appropriate to refuse an extension of time to seek leave to appeal and dismiss the application with costs.
