Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appellant could derive a right to a residence permit from Article 8 ECHR through his relationship with his daughter.
Decisione estratta
He could not; the father-child relationship was not shown to be particularly strong in the affective and financial sense required for a residence right.
Motivazione estratta
The child had never lived with him, contact was limited to regular visits, and regular financial support was not proven. He therefore had to exercise visitation from abroad.
