Key legal question
Whether the administrative appeal against refusal to renew the residence permit was admissible under Article 8 ECHR.
Extracted holding
Yes. Because the appellant maintained a family relationship with his Swiss daughter, he had a conditional legal entitlement to an immigration decision under Article 8 ECHR.
Extracted reasoning
A non-custodial parent with a right of access to a Swiss child may invoke Article 8 ECHR, even though the child lives in Switzerland, making the administrative law appeal admissible.
