The application for leave to apply for judicial review is dismissed on the ground the application is not reasonably arguable. The Applicant’s limit of stay already expired on 29 May 2011. No proper ground has been stated, or disclosed, in the Notice of Application for Leave to Apply for Judicial Review dated 11 January 2018 or the Applicant’s Affirmation made on 11 January 2018 which would justify the court reviewing the decision of the Director of Immigration not to grant to the Applicant an extension of stay.
