Asylum test case rejected
An Irishman and his Chines wife have been refused permission to bring a High Court challenge to the State's refusal to allow her widowed mother to live with them in Ireland. By Ciaran Farrell - 24/11/09
The action, taken by the Lusk family of County Dublin – all of whom are Irish citizens - was seen as a test case, relating to the rights of Irish citizens to have non-EU dependent relatives live with them in the country.
Mr Justice John Edwards ruled yesterday that the Moylan family had not made the "substantial" grounds necessary under law in asylum and immigration proceedings before judicial review proceedings may be brought.
