Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the public-law appeal was admissible and to what extent the Court could review the challenged decisions
Decisione estratta
The appeal was admissible because the appellant had a statutory and conventional claim to renewal of the permit, but the Court would not enter into requests directed against decisions not properly challenged before it.
Motivazione estratta
Under the old law still applicable, the spouse of a Swiss citizen generally had a right to renewal; however, the Federal Supreme Court could only review the decision under attack and not extraneous earlier administrative acts.
