Key legal question
Whether the administrative appeal was admissible despite the foreign police exclusion rule.
Extracted holding
The appeal was admissible because, while the marriage formally subsisted, the appellant could in principle invoke a statutory entitlement to a residence permit.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 7(1) ANAG, a foreign spouse of a Swiss citizen generally has an enforceable claim to a residence permit. The exclusion in Art. 100(1)(b)(3) OG does not apply where such a claim exists.
