At 10:00am on Friday 5th July 2013 the High Court (Mr Justice Blake) will give judgement in the eagerly awaited test case of MM and Others –v- The Secretary of State for the Home Department at the Royal Courts of Justice.
Between 5th and 8th February 2013 the High Court heard the judicial reviews of three claimants who challenged the drastic changes to Immigration Rules which came into force on 9th July 2012
RBM Solicitors acted for the child in the case.
The amended rules require British persons and Refugees to demonstrate a minimum annual income of £18,600 before they are able to sponsor non-EEA spouses from coming to or remaining in the United Kingdom.
The decision is a huge national and international public importance and will affect and impact lives of many British Citizens who have been affected by the draconian changes to the Immigration Rules.
If the Court rules in favour of the claimants then it will seen as a further blow to the flawed policies of Theresa May in trying to curtail fundamental Article 8 rights.
On 10th June 2013 the All-Party Parliamentary Group published its report on the effect of the new rules:

New immigration rules attacked at public meeting in Hackney.
http://www.hackneygazette.co.uk/news/new_immigration_rules_attacked_at_public_meeting_in_hackney_1_2261597
A public meeting was held last Wednesday to support the Divided Families campaign, which wants to repeal rules making it harder for British citizens and people settled here to bring in non-British partners.
A year ago rules were changed meaning you need to earn at least £18,600 annually to bring a husband, wife, civil partner or fiancé into Britain, or more to cover any children or elderly dependents who may wish to enter.
At the meeting organised by the Hackney Refugee and Migrant Support Group Dalston CLR James library, Steve Green from BritCits, an organisation defending the rights of international families, said: “The rules were brought in without debate in Parliament. They are an attack on the nature of British citizenship.”

AP does not use the term "illegal immigrant" any more. "Illegal" should only describe an action not a person. Shame on .@ukhomeoffice
