Key legal question
Whether the public law appeal was admissible and the applicants had standing under family-life protection.
Extracted holding
The appeal was admissible because the daughter had a settled residence right, allowing reliance on family-life protection; both applicants had a legally protected interest.
Extracted reasoning
Although no general right to residence exists, a family-life claim may arise where a family member in Switzerland has a secure residence status. The daughter’s permanent status allowed the mother to invoke Article 8 ECHR and Article 13 BV.
