Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the appeal was admissible against the cantonal decisions and whether the wife’s reunification request remained live
Decisione estratta
The request concerning the wife had become moot after she entered Switzerland and received a residence permit; the appeal was admissible only as to the children’s reunification claim.
Motivazione estratta
Only final cantonal decisions may be challenged, and the federal proceedings no longer concerned the wife because the requested permit had already been granted.
