Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the applicant could derive a right to renewal of his residence permit from his relationship with his Swiss son under Article 8 ECHR / Article 13 Constitution.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The child relationship did not justify renewal because the applicant lacked the required spotless conduct, regardless of whether the emotional and financial bond was sufficiently close.
Extrahierte Begründung
In parent-child cases without a shared household, residence may be granted only if both a particularly close emotional/economic relationship and impeccable conduct are shown. The applicant had repeatedly offended the law, including recent conviction for document forgery, so the exceptional entitlement failed.
