Miah and Others v Secretary of State for The Home Department: CA 7 Mar 2012

The applicant had been refused leave to remain as a Tier 2 (General) Migrant at a time even though he was only two months short of the five years’ continuous residence necessary to support a case for indefinite leave to remain under the rules. He argued that, in assessing whether his removal should be permitted under article 8.2 of the Convention, the weight to be given to the maintenance of immigration controls should be diminished because he had missed satisfying the rules by only a small margin.
