YFX v NSW Trustee and Guardian [2024] NSWCATAP 70

YFX v NSW Trustee and Guardian [2024] NSWCATAP 70

No basis for appellate intervention was established; the applicant failed to demonstrate error of law or that the Tribunal acted unfairly or outside statutory principles. In the absence of new/further evidence or transcript, the Tribunal's reliance on available expert opinion and process was not shown to be in error. Consequently, there was no utility in extending time or granting leave to appeal, and the appeal was dismissed.
