Key legal question
Whether the appellant had a right to a residence permit despite criminal convictions and family reunification ties
Extracted holding
The permit right existed in principle, but it had lapsed because a statutory revocation ground was met and the refusal was proportionate.
Extracted reasoning
The court accepted the foreign robbery conviction as a valid basis under immigration law, rejected the challenge to its reliability, and found the appellant's repeated delinquency and relapse in 2012 outweighed the family-life interests.
