Key legal question
Whether the complaint in public law matters was admissible despite the residence-permit context.
Extracted holding
Admissible in principle because a potential statutory family-based entitlement under Art. 42 et seq. AuG could not be excluded at the outset; however, requests directed against the lower administrative decisions were inadmissible.
Extracted reasoning
Potential entitlement suffices for standing and admissibility; only the final cantonal judgment is challengeable before the Federal Court under the devolutive effect.
