Question juridique clé
Whether the public law appeal was admissible despite the general exclusion rule for residence permits.
Solution extraite
The appeal was admissible only to the extent that the applicant could invoke a possible statutory entitlement to a settlement or residence permit; otherwise no public-law claim existed.
Motifs extraits
Under former ANAG, a claim may arise from Art. 7 ANAG. If the conditions for a settlement permit were met, the applicant could still rely on that claim after divorce, making the appeal admissible ratione materiae in that limited respect.
