When you apply for a judicial review, you ask the Federal Court to review a decision. This might be because the decision-maker did not do their job reasonably, or the process was not fair.

The Federal Court must agree to review the decision. If the Federal Court agrees, it will have an oral hearing to discuss the decision. If your judicial review is successful, the Federal Court sends your case back for a new decision.
