Court of Appeal awards entire costs of judicial review claim challenging visa decision—R (ABB) v Home Secretary

Rowena Wisniewska has written a case analysis in partnership with LexisNexis UK.

Public Law analysis: The Court of Appeal has awarded an appellant (ABB) the entire costs of his judicial review claim made against the Home Secretary (SSHD). ABB appealed against an order of the Upper Tribunal (the 5 August 2024 order) made at the conclusion of the judicial review proceedings that the SSHD pay 75% of ABB’s reasonable costs. On 7 March 2022, ABB submitted an application for entry clearance under the Ukraine Family Scheme (UFS) to join his elder brother in the UK. On 9 April 2022, he submitted an application for entry clearance under the Homes for Ukraine Scheme (HUSS) to join a named sponsor in the UK. On 6 July 2022 the SSHD refused both applications and ABB filed a claim for judicial review of the refusals.
