and

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT

Respondent

NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL
1. The appellant, a Pakistani citizen, has permission to appeal against the First-tier Tribunal determination dismissing his appeal against refusal of entry clearance as a partner under Appendix FM of the Immigration Rules. A hearing has been fixed for 9 September 2014.
2. By a letter dated 5 August 2014, the appellant's representatives stated that they were instructed to withdraw the appeal because the appellant had submitted a fresh settlement application, in order to save costs. Pursuant to paragraph 17 of The Tribunal Procedure (Upper Tribunal) Rules 2008 (as amended), the permission of the Upper Tribunal is required for such withdrawal.
3. On behalf of the Upper Tribunal, I consent to that withdrawal. There is therefore now no valid appeal before the Tribunal.



Signed
