the Applicant v Minister for Immigration and Citizenship
What happened
This case involves an appeal to the Federal Court of Australia from a decision of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia. The Applicant sought judicial review of a decision by the Administrative Appeals Tribunal, which had upheld the Respondent's refusal to grant her a Student (Temporary) visa (Subclass 590). The appeal centred on whether the primary judge was correct to find that a procedural notice issued by the Tribunal under section 359 of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth) was valid, and whether the Tribunal had additional obligations to inform the Applicant of something before making its decision.
