Key legal question
Whether the complaint was admissible in public law matters for the residence/settlement permit claims under former ANAG.
Extracted holding
The appeal was generally admissible for the claims based on Art. 7 ANAG, but inadmissible insofar as it challenged the refusal of a hardship permit under Art. 30 Abs. 1 lit. b AuG.
Extracted reasoning
A claim under Art. 7 ANAG can create a legal entitlement and thus escape Art. 83 lit. c Ziff. 2 BGG; however, no federal-court appeal lies against the discretionary hardship permit refusal.
