The Secretary of State appealed against the decision of Judge Cheales of the First-tier Tribunal (the FTT) promulgated on 30 th September 2014.
The Respondent before the Upper Tribunal was the Appellant before the FTT and I will refer to him as the Claimant.
The Claimant is a male Libyan citizen born 6 th January 1995 who is now 21 years of age. He applied for leave to remain as the dependant of his father, a points-based system migrant.
The application was refused on 30 th April 2013 with reference to paragraph 322(5) of the Immigration Rules, the Secretary of State finding it undesirable to permit the Claimant to remain in the United Kingdom in the light of his conduct because he had been "convicted of a number of violent robberies."
The Claimant's appeal was heard by the FTT on 2 nd September 2014 and dismissed with reference to paragraph 322(5), the FTT finding that the Secretary of State was correct to refuse the Claimant's application for leave to remain under this paragraph. The FTT stated that the nature and seriousness of the Claimant's offences had been taken into consideration and noted that although the Claimant stated that he was not involved in robbery, he had pleaded guilty.
