Question juridique clé
Whether the administrative appeal against refusal of family reunification was admissible despite general exclusions in foreigner law.
Solution extraite
The appeal was admissible because the husband could in principle claim a residence permit under Art. 7 ANAG and the wife could invoke family life protection under Art. 8 ECHR.
Motifs extraits
Where a statutory or convention-based claim may exist, the refusal is a merits issue, not an admissibility bar.
