Key legal question
Whether the expulsion had to be assessed under the former foreigners law or the new AuG
Extracted holding
Because the expulsion order was issued before 1 January 2008, its legality had to be assessed under the former law by analogy to Art. 126 para. 1 AuG.
Extracted reasoning
The administrative measure predated the entry into force of the new Act on Foreign Nationals, so prior law remained applicable.
