Questão jurídica principal
Whether the public-law appeal was admissible in a family reunification case involving only a residence permit holder.
Decisão extraída
No. Because the appellant had only a residence permit and no enforceable entitlement to renewal, neither federal law nor Article 8 ECHR gave him a claim to reunification.
Fundamentação extraída
Art. 44 AuG grants no reunification entitlement; Article 8 ECHR requires a sufficiently entrenched right of residence, which a mere residence permit without a renewal right does not provide.
