Last month the High Court
ruled that guidance issued by the president of the Upper Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) telling judges that appeals should normally be decided on the papers rather than at remote hearings was unlawful. The ruling affects at least 150 individuals.
The case was brought by the Joint Council for the Welfare of Immigrants, which has set up a free, confidential helpline for cases considered by the upper tribunal between 23 March and 20 November. Those who were given permission to appeal against a first-tier tribunal decision, and the error of law hearing took place on the papers, might be affected.
