1 B 7/14, 1 B 7/14 (1 C 22/14) — Requirements for "lawful residence" to acquire permanent residence rights under § 4a Freedom of Movement Act where the citizen’s state of origin was already an EU member state during the prior period of residence

Zusammenfassung (Sachverhalt & Erwägungen)

KI-strukturiert

The Federal Administrative Court admitted the defendant's appeal for leave to appeal, allowing the case to proceed to full review and effectively favoring the defendant at the preliminary stage. The dispute concerns the requirements for establishing "lawful residence" to acquire permanent residence rights for EU citizens under § 4a of the Freedom of Movement Act, specifically in situations where the citizen’s state of origin was already an EU member state during the relevant prior period of residence. The court grounded its decision in § 132 Abs. 2 Nr. 1 VwGO, determining that the issue possesses fundamental legal significance requiring further clarification by the Senate, thereby rendering other asserted grounds for admission unnecessary.
