and

 

Nour Ramadan

Claimant

 

 

Representation:

For the claimant: Not represented

For the appellant: Mr G Harrison, Senior Home Office Presenting Officer

 

 

DECISION AND REASONS

1.             The claimant, Nour Ramadan, date of birth 16.6.87, is a citizen of Syria.

2.             This is the appeal of the Secretary of State against the determination of First-tier Tribunal Judge Chambers, who allowed the claimant’s appeal against the decision of the respondent, dated 10.7.13, to refuse the claimant’s application for leave to remain in the UK outside the Immigration Rules. The Judge heard the appeal on 5.2.14.

3.             First-tier Tribunal Judge Fisher granted permission to appeal on 6.3.14.

4.             Thus the matter came before me on 15.10.14 as an appeal in the Upper Tribunal.

5.             I found an error of law and set the decision aside, reserving the making of the decision to myself in the Upper Tribunal.

6.             It came back before me on 17.12.14. However, Mr Harrison confirmed that following my error of law decision, the Secretary of State had granted leave to remain to the appellant. In the circumstances, the refusal decision which is the subject of the appeal has been withdrawn and there is no appeal to be decided.

 

Conclusion & Decision:

7.             There is no extant appeal before the Upper Tribunal

Anonymity

I have considered whether any parties require the protection of any anonymity direction. No submissions were made on the issue. The First-tier Tribunal did not make an order pursuant to rule 45(4)(i) of the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal (Procedure) Rules 2005.

Given the circumstances, I make no anonymity order.

 

 

 

Fee Award Note: this is not part of the determination.

In the light of my decision, I have considered whether to make a fee award (rule 23A (costs) of the Asylum and Immigration Tribunal (Procedure) Rules 2005 and section 12(4)(a) of the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007).

I have had regard to the Joint Presidential Guidance Note: Fee Awards in Immigration Appeals (December 2011).

I make no fee award.

Reasons: There is no extant appeal.
