Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appeal remained admissible against the revocation of an expired residence permit.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The challenge to the revocation was inadmissible because the permit had already expired; only the request for renewal/prolongation remained in issue.
Extrahierte Begründung
Once the annual permit expired on 2005-02-02, the appellant no longer had an actual and legally protected interest in contesting its revocation.
