Question juridique clé
Whether the administrative appeal was admissible based on a right to a residence permit under federal law or Article 8 ECHR.
Solution extraite
No clear enforceable right was established; the Article 8 ECHR argument could remain open because the appeal failed in any event.
Motifs extraits
A foreigner normally has no right to a residence permit under the LSEE; fiancées generally cannot rely on Article 8 ECHR, and the existence of a sufficiently close family link was doubtful.
