Key legal question
Whether the public law appeal was admissible despite the absence of a statutory or treaty-based entitlement to the requested residence permit.
Extracted holding
No admissible public law appeal lies because the case concerned a discretionary residence permit under former Art. 4 ANAG and no enforceable entitlement was shown.
Extracted reasoning
Discretionary permits under Art. 4 ANAG generally do not create a claim; invoking proportionality or alleged misuse of discretion does not create an admissible entitlement under Art. 83 lit. c Ziff. 2 BGG.
