Question juridique clé
Whether the administrative appeal was admissible against refusal to renew the residence permit.
Solution extraite
Yes, because a foreign spouse of a Swiss citizen can invoke a federal right to a residence permit under the foreign residents law.
Motifs extraits
The general bar on administrative appeals for residence permits does not apply where federal law grants an entitlement; the court held that Art. 7(1) LDDS provided such an entitlement, so admissibility was not excluded.
