Application to quash refusal of international protection rejected as decision-maker addressed core grounds

The High Court refused an application by a Georgian national seeking to quash a decision refusing her asylum and international protection on the basis that the decision-maker failed to consider a significant aspect of her claim. The applicant argued that her status as an internally displaced person from Abkhazia, combined with threats and violence from associates of her deceased husband in Tbilisi, rendered relocation within Georgia unreasonable. The Court found that the decision-maker had adequately considered all essential parts of her claim and addressed the core issues raised, including her history as an internally displaced person and the alleged threats. The Court also exercised its discretion to extend time for bringing the judicial review, but ultimately concluded there was no basis to set aside the refusal, given the applicant also had an appeal remedy.
