Copyright in the High Court of Australia

GUMMOW J:   The applicant is a citizen of India.  A decision by a delegate of the first respondent to refuse a protection visa was upheld by the Refugee Review Tribunal on credit grounds.  An application to the Federal Magistrates Court for judicial review was dismissed by Driver FM.  The Federal Court of Australia (Buchanan J) refused leave to appeal.

The applicant's written case, so far as it is not vague, is directed to criticisms of the merits of the Tribunal's reasoning.  There are no prospects of success in any appeal were leave to be granted.  The application is dismissed.

Pursuant to r 41.10.5 we direct the Registrar to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing the application for special leave.

I publish the disposition signed by Justice Heydon and myself.

AT 9.37 AM THE MATTER WAS CONCLUDED
