Tribunal Case for Married after Brexit

Post by samwise1 » Tue Nov 15, 2022 5:13 pm

This case sets a massive precedence in terms of legal context for people who married or civil partnered after Brexit day. It was reported by the tribunal yesterday.

The fairness issue:
1. In order to conduct a fair hearing, cross-examination should be facilitated by the judge without undue interruption.
2. Where a transcript or recording is available of a hearing at which it is alleged that the proceedings were unfair, it is less likely to be appropriate to seek an account from the judge as to what took place.
The extended family member issue:
3. Where:
a. an application for a residence card as the durable partner of an EEA national under the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2016 was made or refused before the end of the “implementation period” on 31 December 2020 at 11.00PM, and
b. the putative durable partners marry after the end of the implementation period,
in any appeal against the refusal of the application, the post-implementation period marriage is not capable of amounting to a “new matter” for the purposes of an appeal under the 2016 Regulations and is, at its highest, simply further evidence as to existence and durability of the claimed relationship between the appellant and the EEA sponsor.
4. Where such an appellant relies on a post-implementation period marriage to demonstrate the durability of the relationship upon which an application for a residence card as a durable partner was based, whether that marriage is genuine and subsisting may be a relevant issue for the tribunal to determine. The established EU law jurisprudence concerning marriages of convenience does not apply to that assessment.
