Upper Tribunal

(Immigration and Asylum Chamber) Appeal Number: AA/10806/2014

 

 

THE IMMIGRATION ACTS



Heard at Field House

Decision sent to parties on:

On 25 July 2016

On 26 July 2016

 

 

 

Before

 

UPPER TRIBUNAL JUDGE GLEESON

 

 

 

Between

 

Saber Abdulla Ebrahim Fathi

 

[ NO ANONYMITY ORDER ]

 

Appellant

and

 

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT

 

Respondent


NOTICE AND DECISION

Pursuant to rule 21(4) of the Tribunal Procedure (Upper Tribunal) Rules 2008

(as amended)


1.       The appellant has been granted permission to appeal against the decision of the First-tier Tribunal dismissing his appeal against the respondent's decision to remove him to his country of origin, Bahrain, following her refusal to grant him international protection under the Refugee Convention or humanitarian protection grounds, or leave to remain on human rights grounds.

2.       However, the application for permission to appeal is defective. Whereas before the First-tier Tribunal, the applicant was represented by AJO solicitors, in the application for permission to appeal to the Upper Tribunal, he represents himself and no address for service is given. In the appropriate box, he gives his address as 'no fixed abode'.

3.       Paragraph 21(4) of the Upper Tribunal Rules requires the appellant to state his name and address in issuing a notice of appeal. That has not been done and in consequence this was never a valid application for permission to appeal.

4.       It will not be possible to serve this decision on the appellant as we have no address for service. The decision will therefore lie on the appeal file: if the appellant contacts the Upper Tribunal he may apply for the appeal to be reinstated, if he can provide a satisfactory reason for the failure to provide an address for service as the Rules require.

DECISION

5.       I set aside the grant of permission in this appeal.

6.       There is no valid appeal before the Upper Tribunal.
