SZSLN v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection

[2014] HCASL 125

SZSLN

v

MINISTER FOR IMMIGRATION AND BORDER PROTECTION & ANOR

[2014] HCASL 125
S47/2014

1. The applicant seeks special leave to appeal against orders of the Federal Court of Australia (Cowdroy J) dismissing an appeal against orders of the Federal Circuit Court of Australia.  The Federal Circuit Judge (Judge Emmett) dismissed an application for judicial review of a decision made by the Refugee Review Tribunal affirming the decision of a delegate of the first respondent to refuse to grant the applicant a Protection (Class XA) visa.

2. As the applicant does not have legal representation, the application falls to be dealt with under r 41.10 of the High Court Rules 2004.

3. The applicant's written submissions seek to renew complaints made in the courts below and her draft notice of appeal raises a new allegation of bias, which is not substantiated.  There is no reason to doubt the correctness of the conclusions reached by the Federal Court.  An appeal to this Court would enjoy no prospects of success.

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