The Case
In the instant case, the judge had been entitled to dismiss the claimant's application for judicial review of the decision to remove her as an illegal entrant to the United Kingdom on the basis that the claimant had failed to give any good reason for the delay in advancing her application on the relevant ground that she was not an illegal entrant and that to extend time to allow consideration of that submission would have been contrary to good administration.
