Faiz Siddiqui, who has not worked since 2011, said he relies on his wealthy parents to pay for him to live in London.
His parents eventually cut him off after a falling out in recent years.
His barrister, Hugh Southey QC, argued that Siddiqui is entitled to apply for maintenance under a British law called the 1989 Children's Act because he is a"vulnerable" adult due to health issues. "He [Southey] offered no evidence in support of that submission; but even if there were some basis for it , I do not consider it remotely arguable that attitudes have changed in a way that would require us to hold that it was manifestly without reasonable foundation that adult children should be unable to claim financial support from their parents outside the parameters of that legislation.
