Scenario: The applicant, who hasn’t received a courtbook, is informed by the registrar that the department will send it to him. The registrar also explains the potential financial consequences if the applicant loses the case, including paying legal costs and the possibility of an appeal.
Registrar: Good afternoon, I just want to confirm if you’ve received the courtbook for this hearing. It should have been sent to you already.
Applicant: No, I haven’t received any courtbook. I checked my emails multiple times, but nothing came through.
Registrar: I see. I will immediately request the department to send the courtbook to your email. It should be with you shortly.
Applicant: Thank you. I appreciate it. But could you clarify something for me? What happens if I lose this case in the Federal Court?
Registrar: If the decision goes against you, you will likely be ordered to pay the Minister’s legal costs. These costs can be quite substantial, so it’s important to consider your options.
Applicant: That’s concerning. Does that mean the adverse migration decision will stand as well?
Registrar: Yes, the original decision will most likely stand if the court rules against you. You may then need to explore other options or appeal the decision if there are valid grounds.
Applicant: I see. So, there’s still a chance to challenge it through an appeal if the court doesn’t rule in my favor?
Registrar: Yes, you can explore an appeal, but only if there are legitimate grounds for doing so. It’s a process that can be costly and time-consuming, so it’s worth considering carefully.
Applicant: Understood. I’ll need to speak with my lawyer about the next steps if the decision is unfavorable.
Registrar: That’s a wise choice. They’ll be able to guide you through the appeal process and help you understand the risks and potential outcomes.
Applicant: Thank you for the information. I just want to make sure I understand everything before moving forward.
Registrar: Of course. It’s important to have a clear understanding of the process and the potential consequences. Do not hesitate to reach out if you need further assistance.
Applicant: I will. Thanks again for your help today.
Registrar: You’re welcome. Good luck with the rest of the proceedings.
