- HCAL468/2022
The court dismissed the judicial review: there was no procedural unfairness or failure to give adequate reasons in the Director's refusal because the 1st Minute identified the determinative criterion and explained that perceived major discrepancies in separate interviews undermined reasonable proof of a genuine dependent relationship; the Director lawfully balanced interview evidence and other materials and did not act irrationally in reaching refusal; the time issue was rendered moot by the merits assessment.
