- High Court
The Court held that 'getting his or her affairs in order' requires a nexus to matters necessitated by impending deportation (personal, legal or financial matters that must be addressed so deportation does not disadvantage the person or those associated with them); completing less than half of a course of study did not meet that threshold in the circumstances and the IPT erred by failing to consider the statutory threshold and by misapplying s 216(1).
