Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the public law appeal was admissible in an immigration case without an entitlement to the permit
Decisione estratta
The appeal was admissible insofar as the appellant invoked a sufficiently close and effectively lived family relationship with her children and challenged the refusal to reconsider under federal constitutional and convention-based principles.
Motivazione estratta
An applicant may rely on Art. 8 ECHR and Art. 13 BV when a close relationship with a child entitled to reside in Switzerland exists; this also allows review of an allegedly unlawful refusal to reconsider.
