The Case
Where a claimant for asylum sought judicial review of the adjudicator's dismissal of an appeal against the Secretary of State's certification of her claim arguing, inter alia, that the certification was wrong and invalid, and that it should not have been upheld by the adjudicator, the court ruled, dismissing the application, that under the statutory scheme, the role of the adjudicator was not to review the decision of the Secretary of State, but to decide whether he agreed the opinion expressed in the certificate, and in the circumstances, the adjudicator had been entitled to agree with the Secretary of State's certification.
