Key legal question
Whether the federal appeal was sufficiently reasoned to be admissible.
Extracted holding
No. The appeal did not address the cantonal court's alternative reasoning that independently upheld the refusal, so the written submissions failed to meet the statutory reasoning requirement.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 42 BGG, the appellant must engage with the decisive reasons of the challenged judgment. Because the cantonal court relied on an alternative ground concerning the lack of a continuing permit entitlement and no important reasons under Art. 50 AuG, and the appellant failed to challenge that ground, the appeal was manifestly insufficiently reasoned.
