AW (Kiribati) v A REFUGEE AND PROTECTION OFFICER [2023] NZHC 1806

- High Court
Leave refused because the Tribunal applied correct legal principles and relevant precedent; the Court of Appeal in Teitiota forecloses refugee status claims based solely on climate-change impacts affecting a population generally, the applicant failed to establish persecution on Convention grounds or risk under ICCPR, and the alleged natural justice breach was not seriously arguable nor outcome-determinative given the evidential burden on the applicant.
