ADMINISTRATIVE LAW

Fraud – fraud affecting decision of FCC

In SZSXT v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2014] FCAFC 40 (4 April 2014) the Federal Circuit Court refused to extend time for S to seek review of an adverse decision of the Refugee Review Tribunal: [2014] FCCA 1293. S complained that he had been “represented” by a fraudster who falsely claimed to be a migration agent but who was facing charges for not being one. The Full Court concluded that the decision in SZFDE v Minister for Immigration and Citizenship [2007] HCA 35 applied and as there had been fraud on the appellant and the FCC the decision refusing him an extension of time would be quashed.
