- Court
- High Court
Interim relief was granted because deportation would render the appeal nugatory under s142 and there are arguable grounds concerning the interpretation and application of s140 (including relationship between s140(1) and s140(3), meaning of key concepts, and potential admissibility of new evidence) warranting consideration by the Court of Appeal; accordingly Crown agreed not to deport the applicant until specified events, and the court gave effect to that agreement pending appeal.
