Key legal question
Whether the appellant could rely on the Free Movement Agreement to claim renewal of his residence permit despite the criminal conviction.
Extracted holding
As an EU national exercising salaried work, he could in principle rely on the Agreement; the case turned on whether public-order grounds justified refusal.
Extracted reasoning
The Agreement may grant a residence right, but it can be limited by public-order measures under Art. 5 Annex I ALCP, interpreted restrictively and assessed on the person’s own conduct and an actual, sufficiently serious threat.
