Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the refusal to grant a settlement permit violated federal law or Article 8 ECHR
Decisione estratta
No. Even assuming the applicant is the father of the Swiss children, the relationship shown was insufficient to require a settlement permit, and the private-life argument also failed under the stricter case law.
Motivazione estratta
The court relied on the established criteria under Article 8 ECHR and Article 13 BV, noted the lack of proven regular support or close personal ties, and emphasized the applicant's prior abusive conduct leading to revocation.
