Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the federal appeal was admissible against the cantonal judgment and not against earlier administrative decisions.
Decisione estratta
The appeal was admissible only against the cantonal court judgment; the prior cantonal decisions were replaced by devolutive effect.
Motivazione estratta
Only the final cantonal judgment is the proper object of challenge in the later instance; the settlement permit still had legal effect, so the matter was reviewable under the immigration appeal rules.
