Key legal question
Whether the administrative appeal was admissible based on a right under Art. 7 LSEE
Extracted holding
The appeal was admissible only to the extent the appellant relied on his marriage to a Swiss citizen under Art. 7 LSEE; it was inadmissible insofar as he invoked discretionary grounds under Arts. 33 and 36 OLE.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 100(1)(b)(3) OJ bars administrative appeals against discretionary foreigner permits, but Art. 7(1) LSEE grants a right to renewal for the foreign spouse of a Swiss national.
