Key legal question
Whether the administrative appeal was admissible under Art. 17 LSEE despite the daughter's age and the removal order.
Extracted holding
The appeal was admissible only insofar as it relied on Art. 17(2) LSEE; it was inadmissible regarding the removal order and requests outside the scope of the family reunification dispute.
Extracted reasoning
A child under 18 at the time of the reunification request can invoke Art. 17 LSEE. By contrast, Art. 8 ECHR could not be relied on because the applicant was already over 18 when the court ruled, and removal decisions are excluded from the administrative appeal route.
