Application for judicial review of IAD decision refusing family class sponsorship dismissed.
The applicant sought judicial review of an Immigration Appeal Division (IAD) decision dismissing her appeal of a visa officer's refusal to sponsor her alleged child.
The applicant argued the IAD breached procedural fairness by not adjourning the hearing to order a DNA test and by considering the Minister's submissions containing ADR notes.
The Federal Court dismissed the application, finding no legitimate expectation that DNA testing would be ordered and no breach of fairness regarding the Minister's submissions.
