Questão jurídica principal
Whether the residence permit had to be renewed despite the end of family cohabitation and absence of important reasons for living apart.
Decisão extraída
No. The family community had ceased for years and no important reasons justified the separate living arrangement under the law.
Fundamentação extraída
Contacts between the spouses were limited, no effort to resume the relationship was shown, and the six-year separation outweighed the appellant's arguments.
