Questão jurídica principal
Whether the public-law appeal was admissible despite the permit dispute and lack of a statutory entitlement.
Decisão extraída
The appeal could only be heard to the extent that the appellant relied on a possible entitlement under the former foreign nationals law; any purely discretionary residence issue was not reviewable.
Fundamentação extraída
Under Art. 83 lit. c Ziff. 2 BGG, access depends on a legal entitlement. The Court left open whether the appellant had an enforceable claim, because the appeal failed on the merits in any event.
