Question juridique clé
Whether the administrative appeal was admissible because the applicant could rely on a statutory entitlement to a residence permit.
Solution extraite
Yes, the appeal was in principle admissible because the applicant, still formally married to a Swiss citizen, could invoke Art. 7(1) ANAG.
Motifs extraits
A formally subsisting marriage gives a presumptive right to a residence permit; the exclusion for discretionary permits did not apply to this request.
