Immigration

AB (Jamaica) v Secretary of State for the Home Department [2007] EWCA Civ 1302, [2007] All ER (D) 97 (Dec)

 

Where a person is liable to removal from the UK for a breach of immigration rules but has mar­ried a person settled in this country, the effect of the removal on the spouse is an important consideration in deciding whether removal is proportionate for the purposes of Art 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (the right to family life).
