- Court
- Court of First Instance
- Case number
- HCAL1117/2021
The court refused the applicant's request to withdraw and dismissed the leave application because the applicant confirmed he was safe to return to India so there was no live controversy; under binding authority the action should be dismissed rather than left at large and it would be otiose to grant relief when the detriment prompting the judicial review no longer exists.
