Leave to apply for judicial review is refused because the applicant failed to identify any reasonably arguable ground of error of law, procedural unfairness or irrationality in the TCAB decision; the TCAB had considered the evidence, applied correct legal principles, made entitled findings of fact (including that the applicant's evidence was untruthful/speculative/wholly unreliable) and concluded state protection/internal relocation were available; the intended challenge had no realistic prospect of success and the application was also brought out of time.
