Plaintiff P21/2016 v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection

The plaintiff, identified as P21/2016, sought an order to show cause from the Minister for Immigration and Border Protection. This matter was heard in the High Court of Australia.

The primary legal issues before the Court were whether to grant the plaintiff an enlargement of time under section 486A(2) of the *Migration Act 1958* (Cth) and rule 4.02 of the *High Court Rules 2004* (Cth), and consequently, whether to dismiss the plaintiff's application for an order to show cause.

Her Honour refused the plaintiff's application for an enlargement of time and dismissed the application for an order to show cause. The plaintiff was ordered to pay the defendant's costs of the application.
