Question juridique clé
Whether the residence permit could be renewed despite an alleged sham marriage
Solution extraite
No. An alien spouse has no entitlement to a residence permit when the marriage was concluded to circumvent immigration rules.
Motifs extraits
The lower court's factual findings showed promised and partly paid consideration for the marriage, no shared household, and no real marital relationship; the appellant's objections were merely appellatory and did not establish manifest error.
