Leave to apply for judicial review was dismissed because the applicant failed to demonstrate any arguable legal error, procedural unfairness or irrationality in the Board's decision; the Board's factual credibility findings were entitled to deference; the newly produced Bangladesh judgment and other documents were late, not placed before the Board, inadequately explained, and could not, even if credited, demonstrate the requisite error or advance the applicant's case to a degree warranting leave.
