The appellant is a citizen of Jamaica, born on 24 January 1976. She has been given permission to appeal against the determination of First-tier Tribunal Judge Osborne, dismissing her appeal against the respondent’s decision to remove her from the United Kingdom.
On 24 October 2013 the appellant applied for indefinite leave to remain outside the rules on human rights grounds, on the basis of her marriage to, and family life with, Alton Derrick Powell and on the basis of the best interests of her husband’s son Tyrese Bedward-Powell from a previous relationship.
Permission to appeal that decision was sought on the grounds that the judge had failed to give proper consideration to the best interests of the appellant’s husband’s child and the impact upon him of his father’s departure to Jamaica.
Permission to appeal was initially refused, but was subsequently granted by myself on 30 October 2014 on the basis that the grounds were arguable.
Having now, since the grant of permission, had the benefit of detailed submissions from both parties and an opportunity thoroughly to consider the evidence before the judge in the First-tier Tribunal, it seems to me that there was no error of law in her decision.
