Kernrechtsfrage
Whether a constitutional complaint is admissible against the refusal to extend residence permits.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The complaint was inadmissible because no other federal remedy was available, but the applicants lacked a legally protected interest and raised no admissible procedural grievances.
Extrahierte Begründung
There was no entitlement to the permits under federal law, and Article 8 ECHR did not create such an entitlement on the facts. Without a substantive right, standing under Article 88 OG was absent; only formal denials of justice could be invoked, and none were properly pleaded.
