Court of Appeal dismisses appeal and upholds the High Court's decision to refuse a Long Stay Join Family Visa for an Algerian national seeking to join her Irish citizen husband in Ireland, on the grounds that the appellants failed to provide sufficient evidence to establish the nature of their marital relationship, the Irish citizen's role in his child's life and the financial stability required to support the family without becoming a burden on public funds; and there was no error in the Minister's assessment of the evidence or the application of constitutional principles and the European Convention on Human Rights.
