- FCMP97/2020
The applicant for leave (father) failed to demonstrate any arguable case with reasonable prospects of success or any other reason in the interests of justice; the trial judge's findings on the welfare checklist, the treatment of the SWO's SIR and the ISIR, and factual credibility findings were matters of fact and within judicial discretion, not errors of law; the court is not obliged to step into the role of advocate to question witnesses to remedy report deficiencies; accordingly leave to appeal was dismissed and the interim stay set aside, leaving the Relocation Decision in force.
