Question juridique clé
Whether family reunification residence permit should be granted to the applicant's husband despite criminal and immigration violations.
Solution extraite
The refusal of the residence permit was lawful and proportionate in view of the husband's serious drug offence, unlawful entry, ignored removal order, and the lack of exceptional circumstances.
Motifs extraits
The private and family life interests under Art. 8 ECHR did not outweigh the strong public interest in exclusion. The marriage and child were created while the husband was already in detention, and no extraordinary reasons justified departure from the established practice.
