The Court of Appeal has refused permission to appeal the decision by Mr Justice Cranston in the Detained Asylum Casework challenge test case. The latest judgment is R (On the Application Of TH (Bangladesh) & Ors) v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2016] EWCA Civ 815. You can find the newly released policy equality statement on the DAC process here.

In short, this means that the general process challenge has failed, but it is still potentially possible for individuals to show unfairness in their particular case.
