Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the public-law appeal against refusal of a residence permit was admissible
Decisione estratta
Yes, because the appellant could invoke Article 8 ECHR through her Swiss daughter’s protected residence status.
Motivazione estratta
A Swiss child has a settled right of residence; separation of mother and child would engage family life protections, so the case fell within the exception to the exclusion rule.
