Key legal question
Admissibility of the public law appeal against a residence-permit refusal based on an exceptional hardship clause
Extracted holding
The public law appeal is inadmissible because decisions concerning derogations from admission conditions, including exceptional hardship cases under Art. 30(1)(b) LEtr, are excluded under Art. 83(c) LTF.
Extracted reasoning
The challenged decision concerns an immigration matter falling within the statutory inadmissibility exception. The applicant's filing therefore cannot be treated as a public law appeal.
