Key legal question
Whether the appeal was admissible despite foreign-police restrictions
Extracted holding
The appeal was admissible only to the extent that the appellant could invoke a statutory or convention-based entitlement to a residence permit; it was not admissible for the hard-case quota issue.
Extracted reasoning
A still formally existing marriage gave a presumptive entitlement under Art. 7 ANAG, and the relationship to the Swiss child could in principle engage Art. 8 ECHR; however, no reviewable claim arose from the hardship quota provision.
