             By a decision promulgated on 10 October 2023 following a hearing on 27 September 2023, First-tier Tribunal Judge Reed ("the judge") dismissed an appeal brought by the appellant, a citizen of Barbados born in 1974, against a decision of the Secretary of State dated 18 November 2022 to refuse his human rights claim made in the course of seeking to resist deportation. The judge heard the appeal under section 82(1) of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 ("the 2002 Act").
             The appellant now appeals against the decision of the judge with the permission of First-tier Tribunal Judge Adio.
             The issues before the judge centred on whether it would be "unduly harsh" for the purposes of section 117C of the 2002 Act for the appellant's British partner, and his three minor British children, to remain in the United Kingdom without him. The judge found that that would not be unduly harsh and that there were no "very compelling circumstances" over the statutory exceptions to deportation contained in section 117C of the 2002 Act, and dismissed the appeal.
             The issues for resolution in these proceedings are:
             By a letter dated 1 March 2024, the appellant's solicitors applied to adduce further evidence under rule 15(2A) of the Tribunal Procedure (Upper Tribunal) Rules 2008. It is not necessary to determine the application, in light of my conclusions, below, since I have not set the decision of the judge aside.
