The court dismissed the applicant's appeal against the administrative decision denying their right to reside in Estonia. The applicant argued that the authorities failed to consider their specific family ties and the best interests of their child. The court ruled that the administrative body correctly applied the relevant immigration regulations and that the applicant did not meet the statutory requirements for residence.
