Legislator summary

AI generated

The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the applicant's request for extraordinary regularization of their immigration status. The court held that under Article 2(1)(c) of Law 17/96, only non-EU citizens who entered Portugal before March 25, 1995, qualify for this specific regularization. Since the applicant failed to prove entry prior to this date, the administrative authority correctly refused the claim. The decision emphasizes the strict temporal requirement for accessing this extraordinary measure.
