Key legal question
Whether the federal office had standing to file an administrative law appeal
Extracted holding
Yes. The competent federal office may appeal to ensure correct and equal enforcement of federal immigration law in a concrete case.
Extracted reasoning
Art. 103 lit. b OG and Art. 14 Abs. 2 OV-EJPD authorize the office to appeal in matters of aliens law; no specific public interest beyond the concrete case is required.
