my great grandfather was recommended for deportation at Birmingham courts in 1914
where could i look up the record for this?
This was in a local newspaper.
His solicitor forwarded a petition for a
favourable reconsideration to the Home Secretary.
Any help appreciated, thanks.

His appeal will be held at Kew as part of the Govt. Archive collection.
Neither this or the above are digitalised & will have to be searched manually.
