A convicted criminal who has lived in Australia since he was nine years old has lost his bid to remain in the country and will instead be deported back to New Zealand after he was jailed for three years for drug possession.
Jamie Perfect appealed a decision to cancel his Australian visa on character grounds, arguing being deported to New Zealand would be a nightmare and he would most likely never see (his) mum and sister again .
The 29-year-old was convicted in the Queensland Supreme Court of possessing an illicit drug in December 2017 and sent to prison, where eight months later a decision was made to cancel his visa because he was jailed for more than 12 months.

The Queensland Supreme Court has ruled in favour of Advanta Seeds, a subsidiary of UPL. We are pleased that the Supreme Court of Queensland in Australia has dismissed a class action litigation against Advanta Seeds Pty Ltd, Company s subsidiary in Australia. This class action, funded by a UK based litigation funder, alleged that seeds sold by Advanta in 2010/2011 to certain growers in Queensland and News South Wales region of Australia, were contaminated, the company said in a regulatory filing.
Advanta Seeds stated that its team has continued to work closely with growers in the interests of improved crop productivity and farm management. The company invests heavily in research and development and continue to pioneer industry-leading practices and new seed products.
