Key legal question
Whether the later grant of a settlement permit justified revision of the prior non-entry judgment under Art. 137 lit. b OG.
Extracted holding
No. The settlement permit was not a decisive new fact because it could and should have been submitted earlier and, in any event, did not create a reunification right once the daughter had already become adult.
Extracted reasoning
Revision requires a new, materially relevant fact that could not have been produced earlier. The permit was granted after the daughter had turned 18, so the family-reunification conditions under Art. 17 Abs. 2 ANAG were never met while the child was still a minor. The same applies to any claim under Art. 8 EMRK, which likewise depended on minority.
