Today the High Court declined to grant the Sri Lankan family formerly resident on Christmas Island special leave to appeal.
I note the High Court’s decision follows a series of previous decisions by the Department of Home Affairs, Administrative Appeals Tribunal, Federal Circuit Court, Federal Court, Full Federal Court and High Court in relation to the family.
The family has a number of other ongoing legal matters. It is therefore inappropriate for me to comment further.
