Key legal question
Admissibility of the public law appeal in a residence-permit case without a legal entitlement
Extracted holding
The appeal in public law matters is inadmissible because no federal or international rule grants the applicants a right to a residence permit and the case concerns a possible derogation from admission conditions.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 83 let. c ch. 2 and 5 LTF bar this remedy in foreigner-permit and admission-derogation cases lacking a right to the permit.
