Question juridique clé
Whether the applicant had a legal entitlement to renewal of the residence permit allowing federal administrative appeal.
Solution extraite
No statutory entitlement existed on the facts; the appeal could not proceed.
Motifs extraits
The former marriage ended in divorce after about three and a half years, so Article 7 ANAG did not apply. The applicant was not married to his Brazilian partner, so Article 17 ANAG was unavailable.
