Questão jurídica principal
Whether the federal appeal was admissible in light of foreigner-law restrictions and the claimed right of residence under the EU free movement agreement.
Decisão extraída
The appeal was admissible insofar as the applicant could potentially derive a residence right from his registered partnership with an EU citizen, but inadmissible as to the request based on discretionary humanitarian admission.
Fundamentação extraída
A registered partnership with a French national holding settlement status can in principle create a right under the free movement agreement. By contrast, no enforceable right arises from the discretionary hardship provision.
