- High Court
Leave to appeal was refused because the Tribunal's conclusions that the applicant had provided false or misleading information and that INZ correctly declined a character waiver were permissible on the evidence; the Tribunal properly considered the totality of surrounding evidence (including an anonymous report and the applicant's prolonged unlawful stay and work) in assessing intention on the balance of probabilities; no legally tenable argument demonstrated an improper onus or material legal error of wider public importance.
