JA (Ivory Coast) and Another v Secretary of State for The Home Department: CA 14 Dec 2009

The applicants sought to challenge orders for their removal from the UK.
Held: In assessing the proportionality of an order for removal, the court must consider, amongst other things, the history in the particular case of the grant of compassionate leave to remain, and renewal of leave to remain, and the effect of discontuance of any medical treatment. The appeal of JA was allowed, but not that of the other applicant.
