Summary

The judgment from the Appellate Division of the Qatar International Court, presided over by Lord Thomas of Cwmgiedd, Justice Helen Mountfield QC, and Justice Ali Malek QC, denied Devisers Advisory Services LLC permission to appeal against a decision by the First Instance Circuit. The initial ruling found that the company had misled Fadi Sabsabi about UK residency requirements, leading him to enter an agreement for visa services. Sabsabi was entitled to recover his payments and costs. The appellate court found no substantial grounds for appeal, affirming the lower court's decision.
