Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the public law appeal was admissible despite the lack of a legal entitlement to the permit sought
Decisione estratta
No; the appellant could not derive a right to a residence or settlement permit from the applicable law or any international agreement, so the ordinary public law appeal was unavailable.
Motivazione estratta
The relevant request still concerned the 2006 renewal application, governed by the old law, not a new 2008 permit application. Since no enforceable entitlement existed under the Foreign Nationals Act or any treaty, art. 83 lit. c no. 2 LTF excluded the remedy.
